The Great I Am

Thursday 13th March 2008

SCRIPTURE
I tell you most solemnly, before Abraham ever was, I Am.
Jn.8:58

OBSERVATION
Jesus' dialog with the Jews draws to a close. His definitive answer to their question, "who are you claiming to be?" is, "I Am". Jesus' claiming the sacred name of Yahweh has the Jews picking up stones to kill Him.

APPLICATION
When the reality of who Jesus truly is breaks through there are only two responses; accept Him or reject Him, love Him or loath Him, embrace Him or crucify Him - the choice is mine. Today I choose to accept Him, love Him, embrace Him... the Great I Am.

PRAYER
Jesus, my Lord and my God!
Little Flower, please pray for me.
