Every Breath Is Borrowed
EVE RICHARDS
People often ask me why I believe in God. My answer is simple. Because I have learned that life is far too precious to take for granted.
I lost my mother unexpectedly while she was still in her fifties. Years later, I lost my father as well. Those losses changed me forever. They also changed the questions I asked.
For a long time, I searched for answers that could make sense of grief. Why do good people leave too soon? Why are some lives cut short while others continue? Why does loss touch every family?
Over time, I realized I was asking the wrong question. Instead of asking why life ends, I began asking why any of us are given life at all. Every morning I wake up and thank God. Every night before I go to sleep, I pray. Not because my life is perfect. Not because I have all the answers. But because I understand something I once overlooked. None of this is guaranteed. Not tomorrow. Not next year. Not even the next breath. Yet every day we are given opportunities to love, to create, to serve, to dream, and to become more than we were the day before. To me, that is extraordinary.
I believe one of the greatest mistakes we make as human beings is assuming that life is something we are owed. We speak about the future as though it belongs to us. We make plans months and years in advance. We assume there will always be another opportunity, another conversation, another sunrise.
The losses in my own life taught me otherwise. They taught me that every day is a gift. Every relationship is a gift. Every dream is a gift. Every breath is a gift. That understanding did not lead me away from God. It led me toward Him.
The more I appreciate the fragility of life, the more I appreciate the miracle of life itself. I see God in the strength that allows people to continue after heartbreak. I see Him in the courage to begin again after disappointment. I see Him in the kindness of strangers, in the beauty of creation, and in the quiet moments of gratitude that ask for nothing in return.
My faith is not built on having every answer. It is built on the recognition that life itself is a miracle hiding in plain sight. I do not know how many days I have left, and neither does anyone else. What I do know is this: When I open my eyes each morning, I am reminded that another day has been entrusted to me. And for that, I thank God.
Every single day.
