Isn't that just like us - trying to make God conform to what we think God ought to be and do? God is busy trying to bless you, and you are busy putting God in a box so you can be blessed whenever you want, how you want, and with what you want. But it's when we open ourselves to experience the fullness of God that He shows us His glory. It's when we are in a pinch that God is able to expose Himself to us in a way He has never done before. It's not a matter of whether God is capable. The question is whether we are prepared to see His glory.

Many of us are like Moses when he met God at the burning bush. We have not experienced enough of God's capacity to know how to describe God. So when Moses asked God who should he tell Pharaoh sent him, God said just tell him you were sent by "I Am." I like that because it's a description of the very essence of God. It means that God is entirely self-existent. Totally self-sufficient. It means that God is whatever you need God to be. Do you need God to be love? God says, "I Am." Do you need peace? God says, "I Am." Do you need provision? God says, "I Am." You can fill in the blank for yourself. Whatever you need, God says, "I Am."
