I spent the day in the hospital two days ago - taking one double-ventilin treatment after another to get my breathing under control. It wasn't a critical event, but it made me think about how desperately I needed oxygen. Air. I struggled with only shallow breaths. I needed the air to fill me deep in my lungs.
Take a deep, deep breath. Can you feel the life that it is bringing to your body? It's feeding every part of you. A deep breath calms you, refreshes you and helps you to focus.
I am longing for Jesus in the same way I longed for that deep breath of air. Fill me Lord.
He said to me,
"Prophesy to the breath. Prophesy, son of man.
Tell the breath,
'God, the Master, says, Come from the four winds.
Come, breath. Breathe on these slain bodies. Breathe life!"
[Ezekiel 37:9]
