This is a combined idea from my daughter, Beth Moore, and Rob Bell.
What do you know of the breath of God? It was breathed into Adam. From His breath the world was created. A current Christmas tune depicts Mary imploring the Breath of Heaven to hold her together. Remember Abram and Sarai of the Bible's Old Testament? Beth Moore explains that once they were in close relationship with God, He breathed new life into their very names by adding the sound of a breath-represented in Hebrew by our consonant H, in English AH. Thus they became AbrAHam and SarAH. In fact, Go's old testament name, Jehovah, is simply 4 Hebrew letters that make the sound of breathing in and out. God truly is our breath, our very life-to know God is to have true life.
