(~) EXERCISE YOUR SOUL
By: Joseph J. Mazzella
I have been doing a lot of walking lately. I have been doing it for the
exercise it gives me. I am not talking about bodily exercise either;
although I am sure that my body is much fitter because of it. I have been
doing it rather for the wonderful exercise it gives my soul.
Walking helps me to slow down long enough to see that single red leaf
laying along the path, to feel the cool breeze on my face, to watch the
glorious sunlight turn the waves and ripples along the lake near my home
into a thousand golden dancers, and to feel the love of God all around
me. It helps me to see just how beautiful this world and life are. It
makes me want to fill myself with the love, joy, energy, vitality,
delight, peace, and bliss that God gives us all and then share them with
the world. This wonderful soul exercise helps me to become the person God
meant for me to be and gives me the strength to help others do the same.
Take the time to exercise that soul of yours today. Whether it be by
walking, reading, praying, listening to music, talking with friends,
playing with children, petting animals, or just sitting quietly you can
bring ever more goodness, light, strength, happiness, joy, love, and
delight into your soul. Whether it be by smiling, laughing, singing,
listening, caring, helping, encouraging, cheering, praising, giving, or
simply loving you can share every bit of your souls strength, goodness,
light, and joy with the world.
I dont think that God meant for any of us to go through this life with
out of shape souls. I think God put us here to exercise, grow, and expand
our souls until they could fill the universe with their love, joy, and
light. Exercise your soul daily then. Fill it with love, joy, goodness,
and God always. Share its energy, light, and love with everyone forever.
