Selling of a Soul...

 I know you have heard people say this, probably more in a movie or television show.  I would like to think that this wouldn't be a day to day topic at the walmart while grocery shopping.  Lets take a look into what this consists of really.  What is a soul?  In my opinion a soul is the gift of life given to you by God that makes you so special.  This inner light that makes you the person that you are.  The life force that one day will either join God and Jesus in the Greatest Backyard BBQ of all time, or you can go to Hell with Satan and His demons and you are the BBQ.  The choice is actually yours, and a simple Thank you will start you on the path to that amazing celebration.  Can you imagine what that BBQ pit has to look like?  Ok all kidding aside this really is a serious topic, Hell is real and you will suffer for all eternity without God.  The actual selling of a soul is glamorized by hollywood and in all honesty can't happen.  Let me explain, Satan is the great deceiver.  He is the best salesman on this earth.  You want to know what he sells so much of??  LIES!!!  He is quite skilled at convincing people of almost anything.  Satan has no real power, just suggestion and lies.  He has even convinced many that if you "Sell Him your Soul" he can grant you anything that you could ever want.  Now this gets a little tricky.  Satan can give you possessions, money, and even limited power.  Not power like super powers but perhaps a higher position within a company.  You get the idea.  This is all promised to you in return for your soul and turning your back on God and worshipping him.  Satan desires attention, and worship.  This is part of what caused his Fall from Grace.  The key to this whole plan of His isn't the acquisition of your Soul, but you turning from God.  This is the great trick because when you turn from God you setting yourself on a path you don't want.  The great news is that even if you have done this so far in your life, God and Jesus still Love You.  You are not condemned, or cursed because of Satan's Lies.  The Whole Truth is This "You Cannot Sell Something That Doesn't Actually Belong To You."  Your Soul belongs to God and God only.  He decides in the end what happens to it.  Like I said Satan has no power, He knows this.  So if you feel like God has turned His back on you because of choices you have made, FEAR NOT, God will never give up and turn His back on you.  His Grace covers everyone.  Jesus' Love, Mercy, and Blood have washed you clean.  Start changing your life and the lives of others by a simple Thank You to God for not abandoning you.  We are all a Child of God.  Believe this, you are no longer a slave to fear because of this.  Can you actually Sell Your Soul?  The answer to that is a Definitive and Resounding NO, it doesn't actually belong to you.  Praise God at all times, even just a simple Thank You.  It's really that easy to do.  What are you waiting for, that Heavenly BBQ is waiting for you.  (Those smoked ribs have got to be amazing).
