All That I Know Is I’m Breathing…
Breathing.
Breathe.
In the hardest moments of my life, sometimes it seems that breathing is all I am capable of doing. I don’t think I’m the only one. There are many songs written about breath, breathing, and how sometimes that is all we can do.
Keep Breathing” Ingrid Michaelson; “Breathe In, Breathe Out”, Mat Kearney; “Just Breathe”, Pearl Jam;…This list could go on and on…
Through the hardest moments of my life, the lyrics of those songs have spoken to me, reminding me to just take each breath. God breathed life into us (Gen:2)…and sometimes all we can do is draw the strength from the breathe that he offers.
Classes have just started for me, and part of Asbury Seminary’s program is to have a devotional type “reader” that they issue each semester. The theme for this semester’s reader: Breath. You can see the promo for the reader here: I’m pretty pumped about it. It is so encouraging to me that resources like this are out there. Even though I’m an online student, and spend little time on campus, things like this foster such an amazing sense of community. It’s so refreshing and exciting.
So check out the link, and then come and BREATH with me a bit this year.
