God's will & the soul

You know, God's will is usually not what we expected. He tends to surprise us with the unpredictable. And what we desire is sometimes not what He has for us. Thus producing the war that rages deep within. It's more than a battlefield in the mind; that's only one battle in the war. It's more than a battle in the heart, it's a war in the soul--in the deepest depths that pertain to every part of the soul. The soul is the life, the personality that God created and breathed into us. He foreknows the choices we'll make, even though He gives us the will to choose. His Spirit adds eternal life to the soul; without it, the soul is damned to eternal death.
