Our Breath

I was reading the 5th chapter in the book of Daniel. The following verse caught my attention.

Daniel 5:23 (NKJV)

And you have lifted yourself up against the Lord of heaven. They have brought the vessels of His house before you, and you and your lords, your wives and your concubines, have drunk wine from them. And you have praised the gods of silver and gold, bronze and iron, wood and stone, which do not see or hear or know; and the God who holds your breath in His hand and owns all your ways, you have not glorified.

In the book of Genesis God breathed into man when He created him. In this verse God holds the breath of man in His hand. I often thank the Lord for every breath I take. I never thought of God holding my breath in His hand. Nor that He owns all my ways. That was a mind blowing revelation for me.
