When my God seems small, I need to stop. To behold. To take time. To look and read.
Then the Bible reminds me:
I Am that I Am.
The Creator. Provider. King of all Kings.
I Am in the heavens, the oceans, the grass, and the air. I AM Spirit. Evidence of Me is seen everywhere.
I Am Father. I Am Son. I Am Holy Spirit, Elohim.
I Am one God, but three. I Am great mystery.
Do you doubt? Are you confused?
I Am greater than any darkness that surrounds.
I Am God Almighty. I Am God Most High.
Open My Book, that you might be touched by My Light.
Are you cold? Encompassed by darkness and sharp, noisy sounds? Or is it a silence that follows you around?
I Am the Light of the world. I warm the heart. From death to life. I Am able to revive.
Believe Me now. Is there still delay? My grace is sufficient to be all you need, to bring a new start. I Am Who I say. I Am faithful.
I Am forever the same.
Are you hungry?
I Am the Bread of Life.
Come to Me and devour My Word. My Word is True.
I promise comfort and deliverance.
Ask, seek, and knock. I Am the Door, Come to Me. I will open.
I will answer you.
You are more than body. I gave you spirit inside.
Call My name,. . .
“Jesus.”
I Am here.
I am Immanuel, “God with us,” the Christ Child.
I Am a present help in trouble, I Am by your side.
Faith is believing.
Faith breaks through this moment of time.
I Am able to turn water . . .to wine.
I Am spiritual Bread.
Spiritual Light.
Spiritual day to help you endure your night.
I will sustain you, strengthen you, help you and hold. Believe Me?
This moment. Be Still and Behold.
I Am the good Shepherd. I gave my life for my sheep. I can see you. I hear all of your cries. Let deep cry to deep.
Faith believes I AM the Way. I AM the Truth. Faith is experiencing time and time again, that I Am life. I Am the Resurrection.
I Am the Alpha, the Omega, the beginning the end. I Am gracious,
compassionate, slow to anger, . . .
I no longer call you servant. I now call you, friend.
This, and so much more than you can comprehend, this is,
Who I Am.
“And God said unto Moses, I Am That I Am: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I Am hath sent me unto you” (Exodus 3:14).
“I am the bread of life.He who comes to Me shall never hunger” (John 6:35).
“I am the light of the world” (John 8:12).
“The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and they will call him Immanuel” (which means “God with us”), (Matthew 1:23).
“I am the door” (John 10:9).
“I am the true vine” (John 15:1).
“I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd gives His life for the sheep” (John 10:11).
“I am the resurrection and the life”(John 11:25).
“I no longer call you servants, because a servant does not know his master’s business. Instead, I have called you friends, for everything that I learned from my Father I have made known to you,” (John 15:15).
