This choice is in our power.

Talk Four: We want to explore this morning the mystery of the I Am. And the transformation he wants to work in us is , I think, from I to I Am. I think of I as a center which is afraid because it is set against the rest of the world. It�s trying to grasp and have things and possess God. Then what is the I Am? It is an expression of being now in the moment. I Am is potentially what I am, who is free and whole.

They are intimate questions about our relationship. What has led me to God and to know god? Who or what helps me to know God? Conf #4: We will go on this afternoon to deepen the theme of to know God. Back in 1968 I was searching for something and was dissatisfied. Jean came to speak in Toronto and I was touched by his talk and then that summer went to his retreat at Marylake. I share that because searching and being called is important in our lives and should not be taken for granted.
