When Moshe came to the Israelites with the good news of God’s redemption, they could not hear him because of “shortness of breath” and “hard work” (Exodus 6:9). In this meditation, we explore our own shortness of breath in relation to the pressures of a fast paced, productivity oriented society and we consider how we might expand and slow down our breath and our perspective by breathing God in, breathing in God’s spaciousness and patience and calm.
