Have you ever thought about air, about the oxygen we breathe? We can’t see it and we take it for granted. We’ve all seen people who are on oxygen machines because their lungs are failing. To see someone like that really puts things in perspective. Without air, we can’t function. It’s not just that our quality of life suffers; we can’t survive.
It’s those things we don’t really understand that help us through life. But, because we really don’t think about them, it may cause us to not be grateful. Air is invisible. So too is the Spirit invisible. The soul is breath; in other words, it’s life. With every breath you take, you are taking in the spirit of God, the spirit of life itself.
Tip to Take Away
When you go to bed, or when you’re out and about, stop for just a second and breathe in as deeply as you can. Wherever you are, breathe gently, and deeply, knowing you are connected to your creator.
