Interesting article I found on Soul Ties

So what is a soul tie? A soul tie is two souls tied together by the spirit. Mainly caused by sex or sexual abuse. In the eyes of God “the act of sex is marriage through consummation.” Every single time an unmarried person has sex they become married to that person. For example if someone has had twenty-five sex partners, they have probably been exposed to hundreds of other souls. If the other person had more than one partner, then you are also exposed to all their partners as well. In simple terms, you have sex with everyone they have had sex with. So as one can easily see this makes having a truly loving, intimate, and close union very difficult.
What other ways can soul ties form?Soul ties are mainly formed through sexual intercourse, but they can also form emotionally. Please understand sex outside of marriage rips and tears the soul when one tries to break away. Remember you are joined as one, so when you break away it hurts you. What is left are the emotional scars. In my own life I have seen words even become a source of a soul tie. When people say, “I will love you forever” or “I got your back no matter what” you tend to hold on to those words when you have a soul tie because a co-dependency has been created.
Sexual abuse is another way soul ties can be formed. When someone has been sexually abused as a child and becomes an adult the soul tie can greatly affect their relationships.
In Biblical times there was no wedding in the way it is viewed today, so becoming one flesh was marriage.

"Joy is love exalted,
peace is love in repose;
long suffering is love enduring;
gentleness is love in society;
goodness is love in action;
faith is love on the battlefield;
meekness is love in school;
and temperance is love in training."

Champion

Knocked down, and stepped on.
You can bloody my face, black my eye.
I will always get back up!
You can hurt my pride, break my heart.
I will never surrender!
You can take away everything I own.
I will never lay down and die!
You can try and crush me.
I will always survive!
You can reject and ignore me.
I will always persevere!
Strength of spirit, heart of might,
I was born a champion, I was born a fighter.

In the darkness

"There is nothing concealed that will not be disclosed,
or hidden that will not be made known.
What you have said in the dark will be heard
in the daylight, and what you have whispered
in the ear will be proclaimed from the roofs"
Luke 12:2-3

This saying is true, whether you believe in the Bible or not.
Whatever is done in the dark, will always come to the light.
It may happen right away, or take years. Every bad deed
will eventually be found out.

Each Day

What do you live for each day? Our society teaches us that pleasure,
prosperity, position, and popularity will make us happy.-
but living in the service of self always leaves an emptiness no earthy reward can fill.
People will usually go to great lengths to achieve these things,
 usually hurting themselves and others in process.
People with a misguided sense of direction often wonder why they feel unfulfilled.
God gives each of us a life for a very specific reason: to serve Him, not ourselves.
So the question remains...What do you live for each day?

Countdown

Minute by minute.
Hour by hour.
Year by year.
The countdown has begun.
Tried to slip away.
Hide in the shadows.
Turn my face away.
Determined to avoid.
Holding on to nothing.
Suffocating on my own mind.
Meaningless struggles of pain.
Minute by minute.
Hour by hour.
Year by year.
The countdown has begun.
