8-25-19 – MANIFESTING THE BREATH OF LIFE: Embracing the Transition from Living Soul to Life-Giving Spirit, Part III

Today’s Notes:

“Do not be habitually worried, anxious or overly concerned about anything! On the contrary, in everything, and within every situation, by thinking and speaking toward having goodness and having things go well and with ease (or in prayer) and in expression of need – together with thanksgiving – repeatedly let your requests be made known to (toward; face to face with) God.”
(Philippians 4:6 – JMNT)

Today’s Notes:

I – “But someone will say, “How are the dead raised up? And with what body do they come?” Foolish one, what you sow is not made alive unless it dies. And what you sow, you do not sow that body that shall be, but mere grain—perhaps wheat or some other grain. But God gives it a body as He pleases, and to each seed its own body.
All flesh is not the same flesh, but there is one kind of flesh of men, another flesh of animals, another of fish, and another of birds.
There are also celestial bodies and terrestrial bodies, but the glory of the celestial is one, and the glory of the terrestrial is another. There is one glory of the sun, another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars; for one star differs from another star in glory.
So also is the resurrection of the dead. The body is sown in corruption, it is raised in incorruption. It is sown in dishonor, it is raised in glory. It is sown in weakness, it is raised in power. It is sown a natural body, it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body. And so it is written, “The first man Adam became a living being.” The last Adam became a life-giving spirit.
(I Corinthians 15:35-45 – NKJV)

II – “Feelings come and go like clouds in a windy sky. Conscious breathing is my anchor.”
― Thich Nhat Hanh

III – “If you want to conquer the anxiety of life, live in the moment, live in the breath.” ― Amit Ray

IV – “Observe your own body. It breathes. You breathe when you are asleep, when you are no longer conscious of your own ideas of self-identity. Who, then, is breathing? The collection of information that you mistakenly think is you is not the main protagonist in this drama called the breath. In fact, you are not breathing; breath is naturally happening to you. You can purposely end your own life, but you cannot purposely keep your own life going. The expression, “My life” is actually an oxymoron, a result of ignorance and mistaken assumption. You don’t possess life; life expresses itself through you. Your body is a flower that life let bloom, a phenomenon created by life.”
