Share a High and Low from the past week.

Finish this sentence: " I Am...(noun)" --something that describes you, or how you are feeling right now.

Exodus 3: 13-14 The Divine Name Revealed 
  13 But Moses said to God, “If I come to the Israelites and say to them, ‘The God of your ancestors has sent me to you,’ and they ask me, ‘What is his name?’ what shall I say to them?” 14 God said to Moses, “I am who I am.” He said further, “Thus you shall say to the Israelites, ‘I am has sent me to you.’”

What do you think of God’s response of “I Am Who I Am”? What is God saying?

Do you think we learn more about God with this cryptic answer than we would have learned if the answer had just been “God”? Why is this? What is the difference between these two types of answers?

Dear God, thank you for bringing us  here to this place. Help us to open our eyes, our ears, our minds, and our spirits to understand who you are and to know you. Please be with us as we draw near to you and closer to each other. In your Son’s 
holy name, we pray. Amen.

(Name), just as God spoke to Moses, may God speak to you.

Amen.
