Today's devotion centred around breath of Life in us. Big question: Do you have the breathe of life in you?
Obvious, breathe of life is not referring to anyone's else breath except from God, which is significant because only at the creation of humans did God breath the breathe of Life in the process. The rest of the creation are wonderfully created via the the voice of God, the all powerful "Let there be ...".
But having said that, breathe of Life is given to us for a purpose. I believe it is not given to us as a gift or something that we can be boastful about. I believe it is a sign of dependence the we need to remember that in order for us to truly live, the breathe of Life cannot be missing. Without the breathe of Life, we will die a spiritual death, one seperated from God not achieving what God has design.
For me, i cannot say that i have the breathe of Life everyday of my life. I know of seasons of time whereby i turn my head from God and struggle through the requirements of this world and miss out of the true value of Life. However, it is not difficult for me to come to a point of recognising that "Hey, I need God". That to me feels very much like the God-shaped void, one that only God can fit. Apart from God, there is really nothing that can even come close to filling it up completely and eternally.
In conclusion, we all need God's breathe of Life to have our lives at their fullest. We depend on it. So when you see a person without the breathe of Life in them, would you not say a short prayer for them?
