"And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul." -Genesis 2:7

Our body was made of this -Of the earth,

Our soul was given to us -In a breath,

Though our body will someday return to which it was created from -This being the dust of this earth,

Our soul shall return to that of whom gave us our first breath -This being the Lord in Heaven,

Though we were made of this world -Our connection to the other is stronger -

For our body becomes one with earth once more and our body does not last forever,

But -

Our soul returns to the Heavens and our soul does last forever,

This being how the Lord created us,

Good -To help -To be whole in Him -

Is what the Lord made us to be,

We were created in His image -And given His breath -

So one day we may return to Him whom chose to create us
