Our breath is animated by what is going on in our mind and hearts. In the Advent account, King Herod is breathing out murderous plots against Jesus as a young child. He is ruthless, willing to execute any young boy under 2 years old in order to snuff out the heir to the throne, Matthew 2:13, 16. It's a dramatic account that brings into focus early that Jesus came to die. And many sought His life. The Child that was given was born as a sacrifice for you and me. Today, practice some quiet time with Him, breathing into the Holy One who came to die for you. Give thanks. Blessings! Please share us with a friend! Visit intothewaters.com to learn more about us!

Can you hear the words the Father speaks over you? Position like John did, in the wilderness, where he grew strong in Spirit and fulfilled his destiny to point us to Jesus!
