The sweetness of it all

I stop and breathe
Most days I let life pass without giving them a second thought
I stop to think
Waking up and going about my day without considering those around me

I stop and breathe
Everything around me is about to change right before my eyes
I stop to think
Things may change but I hold those memories close in my heart

I stop and breathe
I have joy in so many things and been blessed by so many people
I stop to think
God has given me everything I need, Him, but also sooo much more

I stop to breathe
I am in love
I stop to think
"I love because He first loved us"

I stop to breathe
My past is not a reflection of who I am today
I stop to think
God has transformed my life and made me a new creation

I am His
I think this way because He made me this way
I breathe because He has given me life

Though my heart yerns that every thought would be to His Glory
And my every breathe would be in thanksgiving for all He has done

I am who He has made me to be
Nothing less

I breathe
I am His
