Jesus said to them, “Peace be with you.
As God has sent me, so I send you.”
When he had said this, he breathed on them
and said to them, “Receive the Holy Spirit.”
—John 20. 21-22
Sit still.
Breathe deeply.
In and out, breath flows.
Given, not bought.
Received … and released,
in … and out.
The breath is life,
with power to make life:
air becoming blood;
Word made flesh.
It is Love, which makes you alive.
Love is in you, to receive and give.
It is Spirit, the Breath of Christ,
breathing in you.
You are breathing Jesus.
Jesus is breathing you into the world.
Breathing in, Christ enters you.
Breathing out, love enters the world.
