breathe

OK, so I must confess. I sit to write my first real post, in this new life as a blogger, and I was doing exactly that which I was blogging about. I was writing about simply breathing, letting go of the need to always be doing something, and in the effort to express that exact thing I was pushing hard to find some profound words to make my point. I was overwhelmed by the need to do something magnificant, but instead I choose to breath.

Today breath deeply
breathe in the breath of God
breathe out the control of man
breathe in the refreshment of faith
breathe out the reliance on self
breathe in trust of a Saviour
breathe out fears of dependence
breathe in the love of the Father
breathe out the lies of insecurities
breathe in the hope of tomorrow
breathe out the struggle for success
breathe in the knowledge that we are but dust
breathe out the pride of life
breathe in the life of God
breathe out the life of sin
breathe
simply breathe
Lord have mercy on me, when I breathe.
