For from Him and through Him and for Him are all things. To Him be the glory forever! Amen. Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship. Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—His good, pleasing and perfect will.
Romans 11:36-12:2
Think
The driving force behind fame culture is the need to feel significant, the need to know that someone is celebrating us. There are many ways we seek to achieve fame that will ultimately leave us feeling just as empty as before. Here Paul tells us our significance is not based on the perceptions of others, but rather in the fact that we have been made for the glory of Jesus. The Gospel not only reconciles us back to that glory, but simultaneously reminds us that we are seen, loved, and celebrated by the King of the universe. It doesn’t get more significant than that. Today, remember God’s will for your life is indeed good, pleasing and perfect because He loves you more than you could ever imagine.

Breath Prayer Explanation
Breath prayers are a form of contemplative prayers linked to the rhythm of your breath. Breath prayer has been practiced in the church for thousands of years and is a 1 to 2 sentence prayer you silently pray 5-10 times consecutively throughout the day as you inhale and exhale.
It’s a centering prayer for our minds and hearts to remember God within all circumstances. Breath prayer is a simple yet transformative spiritual practice!
An example of a breath prayer is, “Father, you are Holy” (prayed silenty as you inhale), “Help me be holy” (prayed silently as you exhale).
