What does soul care even look like in a world focused on numbers, titles, likes and followers? To achieve the Power of Soul Care one must possess faith, time management, spiritual disciplines and fortitude. Faith or our belief system is the foundation of soul care. To initiate our journey on the path of soul care, we must first sort through our convictions. We must have clarity about what we believe and why we believe it. Faith requires maintenance and because it affects our character we should periodically analyze how we are integrating our faith into our daily activities. There ought to be a direct correlation between what we believe and what we consistently do. This synchronization between thoughts and actions is critical to sustaining inner peace. The next vital step in achieving the Power of Soul Care is time management. Time is said to be our greatest asset and thus it must be carefully managed. Soul care requires time. The amount of time needed, varies based on where we are on our spiritual journey. Despite our daily responsibilities, the demands of our outer world should never force us to avoid allocating time to care for our inner world. John Wesley aptly highlighted the importance of prioritizing soul care over other daily obligations
