“Happy Soul Sunday!" Solitude is Key!!
Hey Dreamer! Today is the third installment of this five part series... the”5 S’s To Feed Your Soul….
“Happy Soul Sunday!"
"Two are better than one, because they have a good reward for their toil. For if they fall, one will lift up his fellow. But woe to him who is alone when he falls and has not another to lift him up! " - Ecclesiastes 4:9-10
The third S is Solitude of this 5 part series. If our minds are consistently being triggered, and it is influenced, it is very difficult to achieve any level of solitude.
We need this solitude more than ever right now. Since we just passed the first anniversary, we have created a full year of new experiences to look back on. More importantly we have made it to the here and now. Even as we get closer and closer to post-pandemic life, we still have unfinished goals and some lost opportunities and memories. We have ground to make up. The best way to do this is to look inside.
Solitude is defined as 1) The quality or state of being alone or remote from society: Seclusion 2) a lonely place (such as a desert). (wow that sounds like being quarantined)
Since this has been our normal for over a year, trust me I am ready for a new type of solitude.
The type of solitude I am referring to is when you are able to sit with your own thoughts, and focus on what you need to accomplish, do, dream or just simply be without other tasks, other people’s needs or just sitting still… without anything interrupting your solitude.
I recall a time when I thought I had achieved this, and something reminded me that I was not at the level of solitude I really thought I was. I was listening to the radio, and an advertisement for a large big box department store came on, and they were advertising a white sale, not just any white sale but the largest white sale of the YEAR, so large in fact that as they said I didn’t want to miss it. I was only a few blocks from home, but I found myself turning around in my car heading in the opposite direction to go and partake of the White Sale. Then it hit me - I had no need for any additional sheets, or towels… and I turned myself around and headed back home.
I share this story to emphasize the importance of our solitude and the importance of our need to have it and the importance of guarding it and placing boundaries around it for our greater and greatest selves, and for up leveling to f reaching our high vibration of self.
Let us pray...
Gracious God, we are never truly alone for you are with us always. Allow us to treasure the solitude as a gift, to nourish and nurture our soul and to lift us as we move forward into the unknown toward the very purpose you have outlined for use our dream. Lord guide us, lead us, and protect us all along the way. May we be continually grateful in the name of Jesus, Amen!
Happy Soul Sunday!
