A Poem

received, I do not know the author, but it is very appropriate for me today.

I was regretting the past

And fearing the future.

Suddenly my Lord was speaking:

“My NAME is I AM.”

He paused.

I waited.  He continued.

“When you live in the past with its mistakes

and regrets, it is hard.  I am not there.”

My name is not…I WAS.

“When you live in the future, with its problems

and fears, it is hard.  I am not there.”

My name is not…I WILL BE.

“When you live in this moment…

It is not hard.  I am here.

My name is…I AM.”
