"I'm learning to breathe
I'm learning to crawl
I'm finding that You and
You alone can break my fall
I'm living again, awake and alive
I'm dying to breathe in these abundant skies" Switchfoot
Just when I think I've found all of my favorite Switchfoot songs, I'm introduced to one more. I don't remember why I just discovered this song but it happened just when I needed to hear these words. Of course, if you're not a fan then you can't sing along and the music really adds depth to the words. I did hear it before I watched A Walk to Remember (for the first time) a few weeks ago so it was old and got pushed aside when I heard Only Hope which quickly became my new favorite.
And now for a plug.... If you haven't heard them give them a try! If you're an iTunes person you can get Switchfoot "bootlegs" (actually legal recordings from their concerts) for free and feel like you're at a concert.
I guess I really didn't answer the question "Why Learning to Breathe"? Well, because that's what it feels like I'm doing these days. Just when I think I have everything all figured out, God gives me another challenge and I have to start all over from the very beginning.... breathing to crawling to walking and maybe even to running (but not very often). I know this is his way of teaching me to trust him so I'm trying to let him break my fall. kbs
