Soul Ties

“So the Lord God caused the man to fall into a deep sleep; and while he was sleeping, he took one of the man’s ribs and closed up the place with flesh. Then the Lord God made a woman from the rib he had taken out of the man, and he brought her to the man. The man said, “This is now bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh; because she was taken out of man, she shall be called ‘woman’. For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and cleave unto his wife, and they will become one flesh.” (Genesis 2:21-24)

Soul ties are already formed even before the eyes of men. But what really are soul ties? Soul ties are two people bound to complement each other, two people meant for each other. These are two souls tied and knitted together in a covenant relationship. They could also be tied from enslavement or bondage. Soul ties is knitting of two souls that can either bring wonderful blessing or tremendous destruction. It also means to be close to each other or to be attached to one another.

Being in a relationship, one gets tied to the other. The emotional, physical and mental knit between two beings are formed as they precede the relationship. In people who experienced being in a relationship, there a lot of emotions coming out. There are some who has pronounced emotion of love; and some experienced hatred and anger. These knits made the soul tied deeper. In addition, the experiences undergone by soul ties enable them to cleave themselves at each other. Soul ties are bound together by respect, faith, trust and love.

But what if a relationship that is deeply bound and rooted gets broken? What if it brings about disrespect, doubt or hatred?

Reflecting upon the thoughts, soul ties could be very dangerous at times. Dangerous in a way that once you’re in it, it could be very hard to break the tie. Breaking unhealthy soul ties is a very traumatic and painful experience. That is why there is still people who are trap in a knot because they are afraid to cut it. They are afraid of the hurt that they might feel; afraid of being alone. They are scared of going out from the routine that is formed in soul ties.

Forming soul ties are very easy. It is natural for man to attract and bound his self to another. However, nourishing soul ties are the hardest task of life. It is because one could be trap and unaware in soul ties that are unhealthy.
