GOD BREATHS LIFE INTO US

 

GOD BREATHS LIFE INTO US

God breathed life into me

The first time

Om January 19th, 1955-

UNFORTUNATELY-I didn't

Always get it right

And FORTUNATELY for me

He BREATHED LIFE into me

For the second time in a life

And death situation

That began in January of 1977

And still exists today

As a chronic condition

God GAVE me eternal life-

Through his Jesus-and he

GAVE it to you too

“........The Lord

FORMED man out of the clay

Of the ground

And blew into his nostrils

THE BREATH OF LIFE

And so man became

A living being”                                                                                                        Genesis 2:7

It is-of course-God-

And his Son-Jesus

Who CONTROL life and death

In this world

And the next

But there ARE times

One man can HELP another man

Physically-spiritually-and emotionally

HELP each other

With the breath of life

UNDER God's control

ONE WAY we can help another

IS with mouth-to-mouth resuscitation

Or even by donating

A body part

Emotionally=by keeping on ENCOURAGING

And spiritually by PRAYING for one another

MIRACLES come in ALL shapes and sizes

But it is God and Jesus

Who ULTIMATELY control

All of them

It is God and Jesus

Who BREATHE LIFE into us

Life in this world and ETERNAL LIFE

“For with you

It is the FOUNTAIN of life

In your light-WE SEE the light”                                                                    Psalm 36:9

“The fear of the Lord

Is a fountain of life

TURNING a person

From the snares of death”                                                                            Proverbs 14:27

“As for you

See that what you have heard

From the beginning

REMAINS in you

If it does

You will also remain

In the SON-

And in the Father

And this is what 

He PROMISED US-ETERNAL LIFE”                                                              1 John 2:24-25

Our CHRISTIAN FAITH

Calls us to embrace

The TRUTH that there is NO DEATH

I TOTALLY believe that-DO YOU?

Our physical death

Is merely just a PASSAGE

From this earthly life

To the heavenly life

With God and Jesus

WHEN we breathe our last breath

In this life

God will draw NEAR

And breathe life into for us

For yet a SECOND TIME

God BREATHES LIFE into us

Yet again

And we will RISE AGAIN

To life

In Jesus' name,

Robert P. Wallman
