I take 23,040 breaths each day and will breathe in and breathe out the breath of life 8,409,600 this coming year. God willing, that will be over 8 million gifts of life from my Creator in 2020, who will have graciously, mercifully supplied every single one. If I have no other cause to offer thanks to God this year, I will still have at least 8,409,600 reasons.
The Journey // Focus: Genesis 2:7
“Then the Lord God formed the man from the dust of the ground. He breathed the breath of life into the man’s nostrils, and the man became a living person.”
Fundamental to a life of gratitude is the recognition that even my very breath is a gift from my Creator.
I take 23,040 breaths each day and will breathe in and breathe out the breath of life 8,409,600 this coming year. If I live to be 80 years of age, I will have taken about 672,768,000 gifts of life from God, who has graciously, mercifully supplied every single one.
If I had no other cause to offer thanks to God today, I would still have 23,040 reasons. Tomorrow is a whole different matter!
Let everything that has breathe praise the Lord!
