Poem: Led by Breath and Fire

Your Spirit breathes across my soul.
A quiet wind shaping my day.
A whisper louder than the crowds.
A fire warming my waiting hands.
A song pulling me closer home.

You lead me into places unknown.
You call me deeper than fear dares.
You remind me I am your child.
You speak truth into restless thoughts.
You anchor my heart with your name.

Your Spirit lights the darkest trail.
You pour courage into weary bones.
You break fear like brittle branches.
You call me to walk in freedom.
You lead with tenderness and fire.

I do not walk alone today.
I am not abandoned to wander.
You move ahead, beside, and behind.
You stir faith in tired lungs.
You write sonship into my heart.

I will follow your Spirit’s call.
I will trust your unseen hand.
You are the breath in my chest.
You are the fire in my bones.
You are the way of my life.

Daily Prayer:
“Father, let me walk closely by Your Spirit today and live as Your child.”
