In this episode I invite you to “sit with God” through intentional breathing. Scripture offers us the image of God’s breath as Spirit - giving us life and sustaining us. In Genesis chapter 2 we read that God blew the breath of life into the man’s nostrils, making him a living being. In the book of Job we hear, “The Spirit of God has made me; the breath of the Almighty keeps me alive.” And in John’s gospel we read that the risen Christ appeared to his disciples and breathed on them, saying “Receive the Holy Spirit.” So today, I invite you to meditate on the loving presence of the Holy Spirit through this short and easy intentional breathing exercise. If you’re new to meditation – don’t panic. Just relax and follow my words. It’s a good thing!
