Breath of Life – The Outstanding Gift Given to Us

Today’s Reading: Genesis 2:4-8

Today’s Verse: And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul. Genesis 2:7 KJV

Growing up in the Winter months in Ohio, we would enjoy seeing our breath turn to steamy white clouds.

Thinking how amazing it was for our breath, which is usually invisible, to be seen in the freezing air.

It makes me think about the Source of our breath and life. The Lord God our Creator.

The One who formed Adam out of the dust of the ground.

The One who gave him the breath of life.

He is the same One who has given life to us and to every living creature (Genesis 2:7 KJV).

Because of our modern day living, we can find ourselves in a position where we forget our beginnings.

How twenty-four hours a day we breathe without even thinking about it.

How it is possible because God is the One who has given us life.

That is why we must pause and take the time to remember that God is our Creator.

Building an attitude of gratitude and thankfulness into our daily routines.

Thanking Him for letting us see a brand-new day.

For all the help He continues to give us.

Acknowledging it all with a humble and thankful heart.

Let our gratitude be seen. It is guaranteed to touch the lives of others.

Making it where they also desire to give thanks to the Lord for all the goodness and faithfulness He has shown us.

Take the time today to give thanks to God, our Creator.

The One who has given us the breath of life.
