John 20:19-23
The disciples are hiding behind locked doors. Jesus is suddenly in their midst and twice offers them peace. It is now time for them to go out to continue the mission he began. Jesus breathes on them in the same way the Father breathed life into the first human. They are filled with his Spirit, the outpouring of the perfect love between Father and Son.
I was baptized as an infant and confirmed as a young teen. It was not until adulthood that I began to breathe the life breath of your Spirit in me.
