Read
Though my father and mother forsake me, the Lord will receive me.
Psalm 27:10
Think
To be forsaken in a time of need is a betrayal. It is the human condition to experience betrayal, often at the hands of the people we expect to care for us the most. The psalmist is speaking of the worst kind of betrayal, by a mother and father. He says, even in this, “the Lord will take care of me.” What does it mean for the Lord to take care of you, to take your orphaned heart into His home in the face of betrayal?

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).
