I Am

(unknown)
I was regretting the past and fearing the future.
suddenly my Lord was speaking.
My name is I Am
He paused and I waited. He continued...

When you live in the past
with its mistakes and regrets
it's hard, cos 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,
for my name is not 'I Will Be'

When you live in this moment,
it's not hard,
for I am here.
my name is 'I AM'
A friend sent this to me via msn. Thank you friend :)

To feel guilty is to live in the past; to dwell on our guilty feelings over things that are our fault, or even over things that aren't our fault, but we fear might be. Soon guilt upon guilt piles up to become a burden that is literally unbearable. No amount of consoling and rationalising from the people around you can rid you of the profound sense of guilt inside. Then the realisation hits... only God's forgiveness can release us from penalty of our past and fears.
