I AM
I was regretting the past and fearing the future when 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, ITS 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".

PSALMS 23 
The Lord is my Shepherd...
THAT'S RELATIONSHIP!
I shall not want...
THAT'S SUPPLY!
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures...
THAT'S REST!
He leadeth me beside still waters...
THAT'S REFRESHMENT!
He restoreth my soul...
THAT'S HEALING!
He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness...
THAT'S GUIDANCE!
For His name sake...
THAT'S PURPOSE!
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death...
THAT'S CHALLENGE!
I will fear no evil...
THAT'S ASSURANCE!
For thou art with me...
THAT'S FAITHFULNESS!
Thy rod and thy staff they comfort me...
THAT'S SHELTER!
Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies...
THAT'S HOPE!
Thou anointest my head with oil...
THAT'S CONSECRATION!
My cup runneth over...
THAT'S ABUNDANCE!
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life...
THAT'S BLESSING!
And I will dwell in the house of the Lord...
THAT'S SECURITY!
Forever...
THAT'S ETERNITY!

 Jesus spoke these words to Martha, just before
raising Lazarus, her brother, from the dead.
