Genesis 2:7 The Lord God formed the man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living being.
We are not just another creature with the "breath of life" in us. No, we are living souls! We did not just start breathing. God himself gave us breath. We are not just a body. we are so much more. Our pets and the wild animals have life, yet they lack the complete touch of God, his image and his Spirit. He breathed it into us.
Daughters, God created you to be like him. You are to have his character traits. Your desires are to match his desires, living as Christ would. This is true whether you are studying things you think you'll never use, or when you help out someone who is ungrateful or unkind. God, through his Spirit, gives you the power to live a holy life. He breathed into you his Spirit when you accepted Christ. Free his Spirit within your soul and your soul will truly live!
