My Journey to God

Just Breathe in My Love

And Jesus said:
Just breathe in my love,
Allow yourself to relax,
Knowing I hold you.

And Jesus said:
Just breathe in my love,
Float on my strength. You are safe.
I called you by name.

And Jesus said:
Just breathe in my love,
Wrapped in the Holy Spirit.
No words are needed.

And Jesus said:
Just breathe in my love,
My body and blood, my kiss,
My saving grace, yours.

And Jesus said:
Just breathe in my love,
Never will you be alone.
My breath is in you.
