The Story of Soul
There once was a man named Soul who was walking
in a garden. He was whistling a real sweet tune for
he was saved and had the joy of the Lord,
but he was a baby Christian.
As Soul was walking, a beautiful and seductive woman
came out from behind a tree.
Soul was very startled. He said,
"Hello, I'm Soul, what is your name?"
She replied,
"I am Temptation, I have what you want."
"What do I want?" replied Soul.
"You want to do all things which are of the flesh,"
said Temptation.
Soul replied, "O.K., lead me."
So he and Temptation went off and fulfilled the
desires of the flesh.
When Soul returned to the garden, he met a man
named Condemnation.
Condemnation said,
"Hey, I see you have met my friend, Temptation.
" Soul said,
"Yes, who are you?"
I am Condemnation, I come after Temptation.
We work hand-in-hand."
Then Condemnation jumped on Soul's back and began
to beat him. He hit Him in the face and kicked him when
he was down. This went on for Several days.
On about the third day, a man named Mercy came
running and said,
I Command you, Condemnation, to stop beating Soul.
" Condemnation snickered,
"Make me."
So Mercy unsheathed his sword and cut Condemnation
in two. As Soul watched in astonished pain, he was
overtaken by the power of Mercy. Mercy walked up
to Soul and said,
I have dealt with Condemnation before. He should not
show up around you anymore." Soul replied,
"How can I ever thank you?"
"Well," replied Mercy, "I was sent here by
God and He told
me to introduce you to a dear friend of mine.
His name is Redemption."
Redemption walked up and said, "Hello Soul, I see that
you are not doing well."
Soul replied, "Not until Mercy came along. It is a pleasure
to meet you Redemption."
"Well", said Redemption," I am glad to meet you. Are you
ready to Accept me?"
"What do you mean?" asked Soul. Redemption said,
Well, when you accepted Jesus and decided to walk with Him,
then you chose to accept the things of Him and His love.
I am a part of Jesus' love. I help you feel forgiven.
You will never have to deal with Condemnation again.
Temptation may come around, but I have someone
I would like for you to meet who can help you with That.
His name is Grace."
Grace walked up to Soul and said, "Hello Soul,
I have been waiting for you. As a matter of fact all
three of us have been waiting to meet you.
I will help you take the way out of Temptation that
God gives you as it comes up. The last person we want
you to meet is Faith."
Hi Soul, I am Faith, and I will help you stay strong and
keep your Beliefs strong," said Faith.
Soul began to cry. When he began to cry Redemption said,
"This is what we were here for. Jesus redeemed you,
saved you by Grace through Faith and gives you his Mercy.
Jesus loves you Soul."
Soul said, "I love you, Jesus."

Walk In Faith
WE all accept that getting older is inevitable, and nowleading clinicians have revealed the exact age whendifferent body parts start to decline, most alarmingbeing the brain and lungs. French doctors have found that the quality of men's'sperm starts to deteriorate by 35, so that by the time aman is 45 a third of pregnancies end in miscarriage.Here, with the help of leading clinicians, Angela Epsteintells the Daily Mail the ages when different parts of thebody start to lose their battle with time. BRAIN - Starts aging at 20As we get older, the number of nerve cells - or neurons -in the brain decrease. We start with around 100 billion,but in our 20s this number starts to decline. By 40, wecould be losing up to 10,000 per day, affecting memory,co-ordination and brain function. GUT - Starts aging at 55.A healthy gut has a good balance between harmful and'friendly' bacteria. But levels of friendly bacteria inthe gut drop significantly after 55, particularly in the largeintestine, says Tom MacDonald, professor of immunologyat Barts And The London medical school. As a result, wesuffer from poor digestion and an increased risk ofgut disease. Constipatio n is more likely as we age, as theflow of digestive juices from the stomach, liver,pancreas and small intestine slows down. BREASTS - Start aging at 35BY their mid-30s, woman's breasts start losing tissueand fat, reducing size and fullness. Sagging startsproperly at 40 and the aureole(the area surrounding the nipple) can shrink considerably. BLADDER - Starts aging at 65Loss of bladder control is more likely when you hit 65.Women are more vulnerable to bladder problems as, afterthe menopause, declining estrogen levels make tissues inthe urethra - the tube through which urine passes - thinnerand weaker, reducing bladder support. Bladder capacity inan older adult generally is about half that of a younger person- about two cups in a 30-year-old and one cup in a 70-year-old. ... LUNGS - Start aging at 20Lung capacity slowly starts to decrease from the age of 20.By the age of 40, some people are already experiencingbreathlessness. This is partly because the muscles andthe rib cage which control breathing stiffen up. VOICE - Starts aging at 65Our voices become quieter and hoarser with age.The soft tissues in the voice box (larynx) weaken,affecting the pitch, loudness and quality of the voice.A woman's voice may become huskier and lower in pitch,whereas a man's might become thinner and higher. EYES - Start aging at 40Glasses are the norm for many over-40s as failingeyesight kicks in - usually long-sightedness, affecting our ability to see objects up close. HEART - Starts aging at 40The heart pumps blood less effectively around the bodyas we get older. This is because blood vessels becomeless elastic, while arteries can harden or become blockedbecause of fatty deposits forming on the coronary arteries- caused by eating too much saturated fat. The blood supplyto the heart is then reduced, resulting in painful angina.Men over 45 and women over 55 are at greaterrisk of a heart attack. LIVER - Starts aging at 70This is the only organ in the body which seems todefy the aging process. KIDNEYS - Starts aging at 50With kidneys, the number of filtering units (nephrons)that remove waste from the bloodstream starts toreduce in middle age. PROSTATE - Starts aging at 50The prostate often becomes enlarged with age, leading toproblems such as increased need to urinate, says ProfessorRoger Kirby, director of the Prostate Centre in London .This is known as benign prostatic hyperplasia and affectshalf of men over 50, but rarely those under 40. Itoccurs when the prostate absorbs large amounts of themale sex hormone testosterone, which increases thegrowth of cells in the prostate. A normal prostate is thesize of a walnut, but the condition can increase thisto the size of a tangerine. BONES - Start aging at 35'Throughout our life, old bone is broken down by cellscalled osteoclasts and replaced by bone-building cellscalled osteoblasts - a process called bone turnover,'explains Robert Moots, professor of rheumatology atAintree University Hospital in Liverpool . Children's bonegrowth is rapid - the skeleton takes just two yearsto renewitself completely. In adults, this can take ten years.Until our mid-20s, bone density is still increasing.But at 35 bone loss begins as part of thenatural ageing process. TEETH - Start aging at 40As we age, we produce less saliva, which washes awaybacteria, so teeth and gums are more vulnerable to decay.Receding gums - when tissue is lost from gums aroundthe teeth - is common in adults over 40. MUSCLES - Start aging at 30Muscle is constantly being built up and broken down,a process which is well balanced in young adults.However, by the time we're 30, breakdown is greaterthan buildup, explains Professor Robert Moots. Once adultsreach 40, they start to lose between 0.5 and 2 per centof their muscle each year. Regular exercise canhelp prevent this. HEARING - Starts aging mid-50sMore than half of people over 60 lose hearing becauseof their age, according to the Royal NationalInstitute for the Deaf. SKIN - Starts aging mid-20sThe skin starts to age naturally in your mid-20s. TASTE AND SMELL - Start aging at 60We start out in life with about 10,000 taste buds scatteredon the tongue. This number can halve later in life. After weturn 60, taste and smell gradually decline, partly as a resultof the normal ageing process. FERTILITY - Starts aging at 35Female fertility begins to decline after 35, as the numberand quality of eggs in the ovaries start to fall. The lining ofthe womb may become thinner, making it less likely for afertilised egg to take, and also creating anenvironment hostile to sperm. HAIR - Starts aging at 30Male hair loss usually begins in the 30s. Hair is made in tinypouches just under the skin's surface, known as follices.A hair normally grows from each follicle for about threeyears, is then shed, and a new hair grows. Most peoplewill have some grey hair by the age of 35. When we areyoung, our hair is coloured by the pigments produced bycells in the hair follicle known as melanocytes. Subscribe to WowMailz
