There is a verse in the Bible that used to confuse me a little. It’s found in Exodus 3:14. God had just met Moses in the desert through a burning bush that was not consumed. He was sending Moses to Egypt to rescue the Israelites from oppression and slavery. But Moses wasn’t convinced he was the right person. So he asked God in verse 13, “Suppose I go to the Israelites and say to them, ‘The God of your fathers has sent me to you,’ and they ask me, ‘What is His name?’ Then what shall I tell them?” God’s answer is powerful: “I AM WHO I AM. This is what you are to say to the Israelites: ‘I AM has sent me to you.’” What does I AM mean? It means God is the One who always was, always is, and always will be. He is self-existing. Unchanging. Not dependent on anyone. Not limited. Not bound by time or circumstance. He simply IS. And because He is the eternal, self-sufficient God, it means something beautiful for us… He is everything His people need. He is healer. He is rescuer. He is provider. He is strength. He is sustainer. He
