Dearly Beloved,
Grace and Peace to you.
In the one Spirit we were all baptized into one body.
—1 Corinthians 12.13
There is one atmosphere on this planet,
one air that we all breathe.
It is in me and you and our neighbor
and the stranger,
in the saint and the terrorist.
It is the whoosh of the whale’s breath
and the little puffs of cloud
of the song of the wolf.
It is the breath of God.
You may take it into yourself
but it is part of the One Breath we all share.
There is one life in us all.
In the one Spirit
we are all fingers of the same hand.
The love that gives us life
is the love that joins us to each other.
There is no other life.
There is no other wholeness.
When you love your neighbor,
when you love your enemy,
you return to your own,
you enter your wholeness.
There is only One Breath.
Return to it, and be made whole again.
Deep Blessings,
Pastor Steve
