​71. What Sets Us in Motion

Ruakh. God’s spirit.

It’s His breath that animates everything. It’s the reason you can walk around without being wound up or connected to a chord.

It’s quite an amazing thought really.

God’s breath is the reason we are moving. Even breaking down the building blocks of who we are doesn’t tell us what sets us in motion.

It doesn’t tell us why this breath leaves us when we die.

I’m thankful for the reason my heart pumps and my lungs fill with breath. For the Spirit that will birth me from the earth to which I will return.
