Soul Members

In your patience, possess ye your soul so reads the word to possess your soul requires a breaking down and identifying the different members soul members; affection memory conciousness imagination and will power My affections are mine, they belong to me I can do with them as I please setting your affections on things above, cause you to fulfill, " where my heart is there my treasure will be also." Memory is a voluntary action, we can focus on pleasant things that will nurture our spirit, or we can dwell on negative things - it is our choice. conciousness, or awareness, again we should exercise our free will to live in the moment, not captivated by other things. Imagination, we can imagine all sorts of things, but ultimately we decide the pictures or images that play in our mind. And finally, our will is uniquely ours, it separates us from all the other creatures not being controlled by instinct, we can "set our face like a flint" climb over obstacles and accomplish whatever we set out to do. We are responsible for our own actions and for that we will be judged.
