I AM THERE
Do you need me?
I am there. You cannot see me,
yet, I am the light you see by.
You cannnot hear Me,
yet, I speak through your voice.
You cannot feel Me,
yet, I am the power at work
through your hands.
I am at work, though you
do not understand my ways.
I am at work, though you
do not recognize my works.
I am not strange visions.
I am no mystery.
Only in absolute stillness,
beyond self, can you know Me
as I am, then but as a
feeling and as a faith.
Yet, I am here.
Yet, I hear.
Yet, I answer.
When you need Me,
I am there.
Even if you deny Me,
I am there.
Even in your fears,
I am there.
Even in your pain,
I am there.
I am there when you pray
and when you do not pray.
I am in you and
you are in Me.
Only in your mind can you
feel separate from Me, for
only in your mind are the
myths of "yours" and "mine."
Yet only in your mind can
you know Me and experience Me.
Empty your heart of empty
fears. When you get yourself
out of the way, I am there.
You can of yourself do
nothing, but I can do all.
And, I am in all.
Though you may not see the
good, good is there, for I
am there. I am there because
I have to be, for I AM.
Only in Me does the world
have meaning. Only in Me
does the world take form.
Only because of me does the
world go forward. I am the
law in which the movement
of the stars and the growth
of living cells are founded.
I am the Love that is fulfilling.
I am the assurance.
I am the peace.
I am the oneness.
I am the law that you
can live by.
I am the Love that you
can cling to.
I am your assurrance.
I am your peace.
I am the one with you.
I AM.
Though you fail Me,
I do not fail you.
Though your faith in Me is
unsure, My faith never waivers,
because I know you,
because I love you.
BELOVED, I am there.
