WHO IS I AM?

"I AM that I AM without explanation or apology."


The thought of I AM was profoundly strong within me today. I often say that the I AM of God dwells within me. Sometimes, life's subtle reminders of who we really are surprise us with an overwhelming dose of truth.

Most people believe in a higher power, for me it happens to be GOD, and my belief is that God is everywhere, in everyone, and everything--Omnipresent. When Moses was on top of Mt. Sinai talking to a burning bush, he had to ask the question "Who are you? [paraphrased]"...and the spirit that indwelled the bush said to Moses "I AM THAT I AM. Go tell everybody that I AM has sent you to them" [paraphrased, again]. I didn't realize the significance of that statement until I began to ponder it this morning. Although, I AM aware of I AM within me...It's the God in me [shouts to MaryMary -- they got it right!]

When God said "I AM", it was a declaration...a statement of claim to true identity. It positioned life itself and its universal forces to recognize his all-beingness. Think about it a moment! This is why it is so important to state the "I AM" in answer to life's questions.

Q: "How are you today?"
A "I AM absolutely wonderful!"
TRANSLATION: GOD IN ME IS ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL!

Q: "Where are you going?"
A: "I AM going forward in life with enthusiasm!"
TRANSLATION: GOD IN ME IS MOVING ME FORWARD WITH ENTHUSIASM!

Get it???

Any answer to life without stating "I AM" leaves the God presence within you out of the picture. That could mean experiencing life from outside of His divine grace, love, understanding, wisdom, prosperity, wealth, and health...Uh! Duh!!! Do you really want that? NOT.

Sit in silence today and acknowledge the I AM of God within you...say "I AM...I AM" Bring your awareness to the conscious level of his existence within you through I AM --- which God declared his name forever.

Being omnipresent, omniscience, and omnipotent, the I AM that dwells within you has hosted his power within your being...use it! view sourceprint?1
