Exodus 3:14- “And God said to Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shall you say to the children of Israel, I AM has sent me to you.”
A friend was relating his son’s experience taking “Spanish” instruction last semester. He said the difficulty was with conjugating verb tenses.
I remember taking Spanish in high school, myself, and doing drills on verb tenses: I was. I am. I will be…and so on—words denoting past, present, and future states.
God refers to himself the I AM. Tenses don’t apply to Him since He has always existed, He exists now, and He always will.
He has no beginning and no end.
He will always be there for you.
He’s unchanging. He’s 100% committed to you.
You’ve no need to wonder, worry, or fret.
You can count on the one who loved you before you even came into being—the one who will love you throughout all eternity…
Because
He is The Great I AM.
A cute Christian song I love says, “He is the great I AM, not the great I was! K
