Vitamin See

When a body is deprived of key nutrients, the compromise creates chaos.

Injury and damage occur.

Function suffers.

Even "trace" amounts of nutrients are required to keep the body alive...

and to enable it to thrive.

And so with the soul.

Consistent deposits over time are critical.

A body without Vitamin C is subject to scurvy,

a hemorrhaging from the inside out.

And a soul without Vitamin See is subject to soul-scurvy.

Daily doses, critical for the soul

make life, growth, strength and healing possible,

from the inside out.

For now we see in a mirror, dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part, but then I shall know, just as I am also known. 1 Cor 13:12

Daily doses of "see" allow this evolving realization,

this moving closer to the unseen, yet known.

The prescription for soul health calls for us to "see,"

to intentionally seek,

to act

and to be

in ways which fortify the knowledge of God within us.

Daily doses of "seeing" God are found in a Wonderful array of options.

Choosing Vitamin See first thing upon Waking helps us to imitate Jesus in His devotion to the Father.

Now in the morning, having risen a long while before daylight, He went out and departed to a solitary place; and there He prayed. Mark 1:35

Choosing Vitamin See in the Word helps to direct and fulfill us.

Your testimonies are wonderful; therefore my soul keeps them. The entrance of Your words gives light; it gives understanding to the simple. I opened my mouth and panted, for I longed for Your commandments. Psalm 119:129-131

Choosing Vitamin See in His Works helps us to understand His character in all of creation.

But ask the animals, and they will teach you, or the birds in the sky, and they will tell you; or speak to the earth, and it will teach you, or let the fish in the sea inform you. Which of all these does not know that the hand of the Lord has done this? In His hand is the life of every creature and the breath of all mankind. Job 12:7-10.

Vitamin See in our Work allows us to partake in His purpose.

For we are God's fellow workers. 1 Cor 3:9

Vitamin See in our Ways involves our daily observations and thanksgivings to the Giver of all Goodness.

Seven times a day I praise You. Psalm 120:164

Vitamin See in our Witness of others helps us to be encouraged and inspired as we also encourage and inspire others to press on. Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. Hebr 12;1-2

Vitamin See in our quiet Wondering can return us to our breath and the realization that it is God's Breath in us.

The Spirit of God has made me, and the breath of the Almighty gives me life. Job 33:4

Even Vitamin See in our Worries enables perspective.

“Therefore I tell you, do not be anxious about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink, nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing? Look at the birds of the air: they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? And which of you by being anxious can add a single hour to his span of life? And why are you anxious about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin, yet I tell you, even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. Matt 6:25-34.

Consistent deposits from a variety of sources is key to richer nourishment,

to wellness.

And a side effect of consistent Vitamin See may be the outburst of spontaneous song...

"It is well, with my Soul...

It is well, with my Soul...

It is well, with my Soul...it is well, it is well with my Soul!"
