Presence 5: Arts That Inspire Reflection & Prayer

DAY 4 OF 7

I AM

I am

sufficient to nourish and sustain

satisfying the aching hunger in your soul

the fundamental element in your daily diet,

your first meal of the day

and your last bite at night.

I am the bread.

 

I am

the narrow path cut clearly through the undergrowth

providing a faithful compass when you are lost

here walking the winding road with you,

holding your hand from first tentative steps

until you’ve run the final race.

I am the way.

 

I am

the revelation of indisputable fact

defining black and white in a misty sea of grey

turning faith into its rainbow kaleidoscope of authenticity

the first word spoken

and final note left hanging in the air.

I am the truth.

 

I am

vital to your very being

the blood rushing through your veins

energising breath of pure air as you emerge from the oppressive smog,

from the first unfurling shoot of spring

to final leaf fall.

I am the life.

 

I am

outside of time yet present now

before anything was and into the unforeseen forever

the crucial cord woven through the narrative of all that is,

alpha and omega

beginning and end.

I am who I am.

And I am with you always, to the very end of the age.
