Why do we struggle with emotions and feelings? There is a deep rooted piece of who we are that seems to be socially unacceptable to talk about. Yet if we are to be wholistic followers of Christ, how are we to honestly love God if we haven’t learned to express the hurts and pains deep within us. It’s through the raw emotion and feeling that we authentically learn to love God with our Heart, Soul, Mind, and Strength. So while it’s popular social etiquette to mask our feelings and cover up our emotions, The Blessed Soul strives to address these hidden thoughts and feelings. Through the Blessed Soul, we will face unspoken emotions head on. Not only will we create a space that approves conversations about these things as acceptable, but also take the moment to be real about hurts and pains. Inside of this authenticity, we will read scripture that echos our sentiment. And once we have fully understood and addressed these moments, we will speak blessing over the pieces of us that are often hidden and unpopular to talk about. The Blessed Soul is a daily podcast airing Monday through Friday each week. These episode range from 5-10 minutes. These Podcast are a product of calibratedvalues.com.

About midnight, I will go throughout Egypt. Every firstborn son in Egypt will die, from the firstborn son of Pharaoh, who sits on the throne, to the firstborn son of the female slave, who is at her hand mill, and all the firstborn of the cattle as well. There will be loud wailing throughout Egypt-worse than there has ever been or ever will be again. But among the Israelites not a dog will bark at any person or animal. Then you will know that the Lord makes a distinction between Egypt and Israel.
These are the words Moses spoke to Pharaoh before the death angel visited Egypt. It was the final plague and the final demonstration of Power, that God used to demonstrate the length he was willing to go to bring freedom and life to his people.
At midnight, the Death Angel struck down all the firstborn in Egypt. All of Egypt was awakened at midnight by the sound of loud wailing throughout the land. And then God instructs them in Exodus 12:14, This is the day you are to commemorate; for the generations to come you shall celebrate it as a festival to the Lord - a lasting ordinance.
What a gruesome day to commemorate. A day full of death and destructions.
Yet for the Israelites, it was a day of life and freedom.
For them, it wasn’t a night of death. They had been told to slaughter a lamb, and then place the blood of the lamb on the doorpost. For every home with this blood on their door, the death angel past over them.
So for hundreds of years, the Jewish people remembered the Passover. The night the death angel past over them, and allowed them to find freedom!
So on this day of the passion week, Jesus too finds himself at the Passover meal.
