5 Minute Friday - Exhale

Joining Lisa Jo and the girls....5 minutes, no edits, no re-writes and love those that came before...

EXHALE....GO...

Exhale...letting it go, letting it out.  I read the word and I did physically let out a breath.  Permission.  Just let it go.  Let it bust at the seams, let it all fall apart, let it shatter into a million pieces.  Exhale is followed by inhale.  The letting go, the emptying out the clearing of the way has to happen for the intake, for the new, for the bringing in of fresh and life giving and filling.  I'm in a place of exhale.  I feel a bit hollow and deflated. The emptying.  And after thinking on this for a bit..well, my verse this morning, the one He's been whispering all week settled in and I knew.  Deep breath out baby girl.....now take a deep breath in....Thankful.

But forget all that—
    it is nothing compared to what I am going to do.
19 For I am about to do something new.
    See, I have already begun! Do you not see it?
I will make a pathway through the wilderness.
    I will create rivers in the dry wasteland.
Isaiah 43: 18-19 NLT
Stop.

  1. I did just the same thing, how great can it be to just exhale. May you breathe in all kinds of good things. Best wishes, Sabrina.

  2. What a good reminder that we have to let that old breathe out in order to be able to receive the new one!

  3. Kimberly - those are some of my favorite verses. I have posted them in my home office and on my desk at work to remind me that He is always at work for my good even when I don't see it. Let us always breath Him in deeply.
