I Am That I Am

I have found this statement “I am that I am” in a couple different spiritual traditions.  “Be still and know that I am…” can be taken a couple words at a time: “Be still and know.”  “Be still.” And ultimately, “Be”.

Over and over again, in super new age language or hidden ancient tongues, it is in the present that all exists.  Power is indeed in the now, the space between the breaths.

In my spiritual meeting this morning, I heard it put so well.  We can’t find the Divine in the past, because it’s not “I was.”  We cannot find Her in the future, because it is not “I will be.”  We only find the Divine right here, right now, sitting and clicking the keys, your eyes moving through these tiny lines on the screen, music in the background, handyman pounding on the house, right in this very second She says: I AM.

It is always fun to break the time and space barrier.   Again and again and again and again and forever and always.
