That I Am

                                                              Exodus 13:14
                                         "And God said unto Moses, I Am That I am"

         Even if you have a difficult time in English grammar, you're not likely to get mixed up when referring to yourself and the passage of time. You say,  "I was" yesterday,  "I am" today, and  "I will be tomorrow. But when God describes His existence He doesn't do it that way, since He is eternal. He always was, and He always will be. That means---- hang on now---- that He always is. He can view everything, whether past or future, as if it were present. He can say,  "I am" yesterday, "I am" today, and  "I am" tomorrow.
         This timelessness is such an essential part of God's nature that He even uses it as one of His wonderful names. Remember when Moses was commissioned by God to return to Egypt and lead the children out of  bondage?  Moses insisted that he wasn't the man for the job. But God said, "Certainly I will be with thee" But just like we do today , we question God saying,  "Are you sure you want me to do this for you".
         All we need to Remember is what God told Moses. Tell them that, "The God of your fathers hath sent me unto you."  Better yet; call out God's name,  "I AM THAT I AM"  told me to do this for you.  If you believe as I do; A God big and great enough to be named "I AM" is sufficient for me.
