“You don’t have a soul, you are a soul.  You have a body.”

One of my favorite quotes.  The depth of understanding in this astounds me and tickles my mind.

When we grasp that we are a soul, and wear a body, it puts our existence into clearer focus.  For the Christian, it brings us rest from fear of death, and urgency as we understand that we are playing for all the marbles here, every day.
