My Name is "I AM"

I was regretting the past and fearing the future.

Suddenly my Lord was speaking:

“MY NAME IS I AM”

He paused. I waited. He continued!

“When you live in the past with its mistakes and regrets, it is hard. I AM not there.
My name is not I WAS.

When you live in the future,with its problems and fears, it is hard. I AM not there.
My name is not I WILL BE.

When you live in this momentit is not hard. I AM here.
My name is I AM!”

It's a Sabotage

you know when you're trying to do something good, and someone else doesnt want to, but they dont want you to succeed either, so they try and sabotage you?? yeah.. this is my day today:

Today: I was drinking my slim fast breakfast
Neighbor lady: wow.. you've been doing really good this week.
Me: Thanks.. im trying. I'm very motivated to lose what I gained last year ( i mean seriously Motivated..i really want to get back where i was! not just for health reasons, but for Matt too!)
Neighbor lady: yeah.. i need to too!

Lunch: Im drinking my second slim fast.
Neighbor lady: good job girl! you rock (she's chomping on chicken teryaki and rice)
me : thanks :) ( i really just want to say, stop watching me!)

An hour later
Neighbor lady comes to my desk with a slice of cheesecake the size of a freaking dinner plate, sets it on my desk and begins to walk away.
Neighbor lady: Sally's Bday cake ! YUM I knew you'd want some! It is So good.. cheat a little today ok.. you've done good, you deserve a cheat treat!!
(mind you, a slice this big is wayyy more than a cheat treat)

Me: no thanks, i really dont want to go there.
I try and hand it back, she wont take it.
Me: I dont want to waste it, maybe you should see if someone else wants it?
Neighbor: no no, everyone is having some and already got a piece.. just nibble on it.. ( i thought I was done with peer pressure!)

Me: ( no words, I just dropped it in my garbage can while she looked on with her mouth open)
