“Abide in me, and I in you.”—John 15:4
SOULjourner,
Let’s pause to reconnect with God through the sacred rhythm of breath. As we breathe, there's a gift exchange of ‘release + receive’.
The act of release (exhale) is not forced; it flows rhythmically as we receive (inhale) and engage in practices that loosen the grip of overwhelm and allow God’s peace to settle within us.
The Flow of Release
Release is not a single act but a gentle process—a surrender that unfolds as we adopt abiding practices.
We align our bodies, minds, and spirits through breath prayer with God’s presence. Each exhale becomes an act of letting go, and each inhale is an act of receiving divine grace.
This sacred rhythm reminds us that abiding is not about striving but about remaining connected to the true Vine. It is through this connection that we bear fruit—not by force but by flowing in faith, hope, and love.
Engage Breath Prayer
Begin with this prayer:
• Exhale: “Lord, I release my overwhelm.”
• Inhale: “Lord, I receive Your patience.”
Repeat this rhythm slowly + deliberately. Let your breathing guide you into a deeper awareness of God’s presence.
As you practice, notice how the tight grip of anxiety begins to loosen your body, replaced by the gentle flow of trust + peace.
Reflections
What are you holding onto that feels heavy or overwhelming?
How might you invite God’s Spirit to help you release it?
As you breathe today, consider how this practice can become a daily rhythm—a way to stay rooted in Yeshua/Jesus’ love and resourced in His patience.
