I AM

I AM We have searched everywhereFrom the assemblies, crusade groundsAnd to stadium evangelismHis mighty works offer usOnly a glimpse of his presence We have searched everywhereBehold the birds, like other creaturesOn the leveling green vegetationAgainst the seas, space and starsWith the sun striving to affirm We have searched everywhereBeneath the waters, on the mountainsAnd from the moon to the distant planetsYet, further away we go in our searchFrom knowing our source and seeing his face We have searched everywhereWhere have we not been to, I ask?Through the pages of all the holy booksIn the great search for our sourceO! God Almighty, the creator of all things A soft small voice speaks the wordProclaiming that which we so desireIs in ourselves, I mean, in meGod is thus, revealed unto manI think, therefore I AM…

Man, that's deep. I especially like the closing stanza, as there are many who believe that we all carry a little piece of God within us. If you believe in Christianity, we're all created in God's image. Some believe that the earth and people are one, and that God is in everything. Quite a thought-provoking write here. ~Jess ---------------------------------------------------- "Live every day as if it were your last; one day you'll be right...."

We all look,and eventually find that he is in our heart with us. I agree that God is in everything.

'I am' tries to state that God Almighty is revealed to us most succinctly in ourselves, rather than in external structures. In other words in the kingdom that is within. 'Who I am' is a good poem. It gives an insight to the strength of the author as a woman of substance, for example a singer, as one who mingles, and above all, a queen. well done and best wishes. T.
