"This is the Air I Breathe"

I just ran across this: Steven Curtis Chapman lost his 5 year old daughter in an accident almost a year ago. He was at the Dove Music Awards this week and had this to say:

Backstage he talked about how difficult the past year has been, especially handling media requests to talk about the tragedy. But Chapman also spoke of how his faith has sustained his family as they navigate what he calls "the new normal."

"Scripture hasn't just become more precious, but it's become the air that I breathe," he said. "There have been some mornings where I'm not sure if I'll be able to get out of bed, but now when I read the Bible, it's become my oxygen."
