Breath of God
Sunday June 3rd, Genesis 1: In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters. In the beginning was nothingness, except the word of God, and thus life began. Even there we hear of the Spirit hovering over the waters of chaos. The Spirit, the breath of life itself that comes from God. As God started this little experiment in love brought to life with the breath of God. God said “Yes”, and the relationship between God’s love and all that is, began. Guided each step along the way by the loving, life giving, breath of God. In Buddhists thought, all of life contains a part of all other life. That is a good way to see the work of the Spirit and a calling as to how we are to treat all life.

Three years ago I was wandering around [mental hospital] completely shattered physically, emotionally and spiritually. The mental torment I was experiencing was absolutely terrifying. Every waking second, I was having horrifying images from my past. I thought I was being punished for my past sins. My whole life flashed before my eyes and I felt I had failed miserably in my journey through life. The whole experience was an awakening [THE LONG DARK NIGHT OF THE SOUL] a metamorphosis. God was slowly penetrating the shield I had put up all those desperate years. I had no "I" - that is what God wanted for me, to become Christ centered, not “I” centered [in retrospect]. There is nothing in this world, but the saving grace of our Lord Jesus Christ. He eventually delivered me from my HELL; when I got down on my knees and asked Him for mercy and forgiveness for my sins. God breathed on me. Praise the LORD!!
PEACE BE WITH YOU
