What “Word” Does Your Soul Need Today?

Wednesday, I got a text from my brother: “I finished this song after we chatted the other day.” The song was titled “Be Okay.” I sat on my porch at 2:00 pm and listened as the words penetrated my soul and pushed emotion and tears out of my body.

Have you ever had this experience?

Where the words, the music, the encouraging note from someone, the phone call, the email that you needed, the affirmation from a friend, come right at the moment of need. Right at the moment where the soul connects to these words in a way that makes you feel like, “How did you know?”

I have a dear sister in Kenya, and she sent me a message telling me she had a rough night and couldn’t sleep. She said in that moment she realized, “I have a song for this.” She pulled up my song “So Unkind” and told me she listened to it on repeat all night (link in comments). On the other side of the world, words to soothe a hurting soul.

The song my brother wrote and sent me, I have listened to on repeat for the last week, and allowed the words and the music to express the groaning and yearnings in my soul that sometimes are hard to do on our own.

It made me consider this gift. The power. The depth of healing this offering can bring.

What else can do this? What else heals like words?

-You are wanted.

-You are loved.

-You are capable.

-You have what it takes.

-You are smart.

-You can overcome.

-You are going to be okay.

-You are needed.

-You have a purpose.

-You are beautiful.

-You are strong.

-You can do this.

-You’ve got this.

-I am with you.

-I will support you.

-I will not leave you.

-I will walk with you through this.

-I believe in you.

-I love you.

In the beginning was the Word. *The ultimate expression and creative force of “God.” The Divine wisdom, logic, and rational principle that orders the universe. The order and knowledge that holds the cosmos together. The soul of the world that keeps everything in perfect balance. The Greek word “Logos” is defined as this mysterious power, this unknown force holding things, creating things, ordering things.

In the beginning was the Logos…

*The logos is living and powerful, sharp, piercing, even able to divide soul and spirit and discern the thoughts, the attitudes, the intents, to expose our innermost desires.

Words are alive, a breathing organism.

We have access to this divine wisdom, this indescribable power, to take breath and wrap words around it, and push words out into the world. To create, to allow them to reach, touch, and heal in a way nothing else can.

My dear, may these words and the living “Word” find you today.

Wherever you are, whatever you need, may logos find you.

May your soul feel the profound understanding that comes when you hear, read, experience the right “Words” at the right moment, and somehow it does something unexplainable. Heals, nourishes, expresses, sees, moves, clarifies…

My prayer for you is that you might hear and experience the “living Word” in a powerful new way and that your soul may find peace.

The “Soul of the World” is reaching out to you, allow it to do what only this mysterious power can do: to penetrate your heart and receive.

From My Heart To Yours
