God is clarity. We begin our lives with a simple goal = breathe. We come out of the womb and all the adults around us hold their breaths until they see us breathe. Then everyone releases their breath in relief. In essence our aim in life does not change much from there. Our brain which is focused on survival would tell us our breath is merely a physical function. Our hearts and our spirits know different. Their aim is to get us to bring in the spirit of life. This is represented in the taking in and releasing of breath. We can know the essence of allowing Spirit to move in and through us by the physical experience of our breath. When we stop breathing we stop allowing life to invigorate and move us. We die spiritually and physically. God’s aim is clear, live fully and experience the breadth and depth of love. We choose to embrace this aim of life by breathing in and out physically as well as spiritually.
My prayer for us is the courage to choose the aim of life God has set before us and breathe in and out today.
God designed us to experience the breath of life so we might know love, how many times do you want to fully take on the aim of God today? Share in the comments.
