Rosemary's Blessing of The Week:
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,
John reading from Jonah.
“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.”
I Am by Helen Mallicoat
Connie reading from 1 Corinthians.
