Day 6 - The Art of Breathing

The most critical component to our physical life is breathing. It sustains the quality, even the existence of life. We were created to receive oxygen and to release the end product. However, if one of these processes is compromised, life would cease to exist. I also believe in spiritual breathing - Prayer! Prayer is communicating with the Father, either verbally or non-verbally. The quality of our spiritual lives is contingent upon our commitment to communicating with the Father - spiritual breathing. With the myriad of activities vying for our uninterrupted attention, we run the risk of going hours, days, even weeks without 'telling God all about our troubles...' This is risky behavior! Today I am attempting to commit to praying without ceasing. I will try to breathe spiritually on a regular basis, so that I experience uninterrupted communication with the Father. I can't wait to experience the end results - intimacy, peace, faith, fellowship, direction. Let's breathe together!
