Life Coaching: Just Breathe
/I had a simply lovely post written for today. It was all about Rosh Hashanah (the Feast of Trumpets). Rosh Hashanah started at sundown on Sunday, and it’s a big deal. There’s a feast and a shofar is blown. A shofar is a horn made from the horn of a ram, and from personal experience, I can attest to the fact that they are LOUD.
We don’t often hear the sound of a shofar in modern day American churches. It’s just not something our teachers decide to do in Sunday school. But maybe we should. Perhaps the sound of that trumpet would awaken some of the sleep that seems to dog our brains from time to time.
When we breathe in deeply and blow a trumpet (or a shofar), we are returning back to God the very breath He gave us. From the moment of we take our first intake of breath until the last expulsion, we are breathing Gods oxygen. Babies cry “Yah” at their first breath and elders wheeze “Weh” when they breathe their last. put that together, and it’s God’s Name—Yahweh.
What are we doing with the breath He gave us? How does breathing God’s air affect our lives? How does that fit into our vision? These are questions to ponder today. Just breathe!
I pray that God will breathe His life into YOUR life today! God bless! Maranatha!
