In every thing give thanks:

for this is the will of God

in Christ Jesus concerning you.

Quench not the Spirit

1 Thes. 5:18

thank God no matter what happens.

This is the way God wants us to live

We belong to Christ Jesus

Don’t suppress the Spirit

The message

In my life the presence or absence of gratitude

is very interesting in my attitude & life responses

Gratitude & a lack of it effects my perspective.

I wish I could get a deep sense of awe

I wish this would become ingrained in my mind.

Just a basic awareness, in every waking moment,

of the amazing truth that God is infinite

And in all of His perfections He loves me.

That every breath I draw comes from Him

That every feeling & thought would be focused on Jesus

Unfortunately I have a personal flaw

There are leaks where aggravations interfere.

The ability to draw breath is a big deal

The gift of allowing the breath of Gods Spirit in

Now that’s even beyond my wildest imagination

The Spirit of life in Christ, like a strong wind,

Of fresh life giving breath.

He magnificently clearers the air,

He frees me from the brutal tyranny

of sin and death.

My human condition is always battling sin & death,

I live in an internal disordered mess

of struggling to breath.

But breath gives life.

Basic breathing keeps me alive

Breathing in Gods Spirit is my new life

As breath gives life to my physical muscle

Gods Spirit & Gods voice through His Word

Gives spiritual life to my new being in Christ
