Exhale

Real Life and Real Issues

Exhale means to breathe out the air in your lungs. When you breathe out, your lungs pushes air out, reducing the carbon dioxide in your body and making room for you to inhale oxygen. I know that a lot has been happening in the past weeks now. From the killing of George floyd in Minneapolis, Minnesota USA, to the rape and killing of Uwa a student at Uniben, to the death of a young girl Tina who was shot by a police and the most recent one, the rape and killing of an 18 years old Barakat in Ibadan close to her dad's house. All these events have been happening back to back and this is enough to weigh our spirits and soul down and to make us question all that has been happening. More than just the physical exercise of exhaling. Exhale the days trouble, fear, toxic thoughts, worry ,exhale bitterness, anger, frustration, disappointments and give room to inhale goodness, positively, faith, trust in God ,inhale peace, rest, joy, stillness, by focusing on what brings you rest. DON'T FOCUS ON WHAT YOU CAN'T CONTROL . You can pray for yourself and others and today I pray for those struggling to see the light in the darkness, I ask that God shines his light a bit brighter in our world. May we find peace that surpasses all understanding, may every feeling of depression, anxiety doubt give way to hope, joy, love ,peace and unexplainable gladness .Amen
