The origin

"All the earth will shout Your praise
Our hearts will cry, these bones will say
Great are You, Lord

It's Your breath in our lungs
So we pour out our praise, we pour out our praise"

~ Jason Ingram, David Leonard, Leslie Jordan

"Then the LORD God took some soil from the ground and formed a man out of it; he breathed life-giving breath into his nostrils and the man began to live."

(Genesis 2.7 GNB)

"You were made from soil, and you will become soil again."

(Genesis 3.19 GNB)

As a follower of Jesus, I was made anew the moment I was born again. Same bones and same lungs. But God breathed a new life into me so I became his new creation. And as such, my life and all that I am are for his purpose.
