What we choose

"If anyone chooses to do God's will, he will find out whether my teaching comes from God or whether I speak on my own." NIV John 7:17

God created us
As magnets to attract souls
We attract spirits
And become the composite
We become what we attract.

What we choose.

Thank you for your thoughts, Zinsser.

Is this why Christ said,

"Jesus said to them, "I tell you the truth, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you." NIV John 3:63.

Our bodies and spirits are nourished by what you choose to partake of.

Thank you, Karen. Pondering is wonderfully nourishing to the soul. It is walking with hand in hand with God in silent meditation, and listening as He explains His Will and gives us directions.

yes!  Opposites attract and so we attract those who need to hear right?

Yes, Rose. We attract those who want our assurance, and repel those who want to be independent of us.
