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.

Peter walked on water.
But why?
What caused him to step out of a perfectly good boat,
And onto the turbulent waters of the sea?
Jesus didn’t ask him to.
In fact, Peter suggested it to him.
So why would he do it?
Perhaps, the answer to that, is one you and I can resonate with all too well.
It was a pretty adventurous day. Miracles were done, the gospel was preached, and people were ministered too, all without rest or food. Then word comes that John had been beheaded. And in an attempt to get away and rest, thousands of hungry, helpless people crowd around them on a remote hillside.
Being late in the day, they came to Jesus with concern - It’s late, and these people need to be fed.
But what does Jesus tell them?
“You give them something to eat!”
Listen to their response to Jesus in Mark 6:37
“That would take more than half a year’s wages! Are we to go and spend that much on bread and give it to them to eat?”
In other words,
Hold on! We’ve given everything we can. And now you want us to go and use up more energy and resource.
It’s a familiar feeling we don’t like to admit at times, but it sounds more like this,
What do you want from me? Do you see what I’ve already done? IS THERE NO END TO IT?
