The Pattern

The Pattern

To my dear child of anguish

It was not me who punished

To my dear child of tears

It is I who takes away your fears

Do you hear me my child of doubt?

Wasn’t it I who flourished your drought?

I ask of you again to come to me

I can indeed again set you free!

The chains that hold you, can you see

That you are the one who holds the key

I will remind you again and again

Just like I told you when all the world began

I will not leave you to suffer

The pain you feel, I will buffer

Don’t you know the stripes on my back

Are they ones you will be able to lack

It was I who suffered the greatest suffering

So you would know, you were the one I was covering.

Sadly, you must suffer on this world

But, there will be a day where it will not be twirled

And just as I promised, I will come back

All sin will cease, and there will be no more black.

I am.

|| Morning Devotions ||
– I am. –
“I am” is a statement of being. It is an affirmation of a perceived state. It is not the truth; rather, it is a declaration of perception.
“I am cold” does not mean your body is cold. It is a statement that your body, which is always warm, perceives coldness.
“I am unloveable” is a statement that you perceive a lack of love. It is not the truth of who you are. As my divine expression, you are love and therefore always loveable.

This day, remember that your “I am” declarations are only your perceived state, which is not always the same as the truth. The truth is that you are loved, blessed, limitless, and abundant.

This reminds me of a time when I was in school, and I was having a very discouraging time, and I sincerely wanted to give up, I believed I wasn’t strong, smart, or capable of even one day being a leader, I was just down in the dumps. And I remember I was sitting in class, feeling alone, and Fred stepped out to see what was going on. I began to weep and pour out all my problems to Fred. I spoke about who I thought I was, and what he said to me was simple, and heart wrenching. “Who does God say you are? You’re a Daughter of Christ, and everything you say you are, is not matching with the truth.” Those words have stuck with me, and I am reminded of them every time I doubt myself, and the purpose God has given me.

***Today, let us align our “I am” statements with the truth.”

and Thank you Fred! 🙂
