The cross I imagine I carry

“I have and I am.    Let’s tarry awhile … “I have” is what I see, what I can prove, what I can hold in my hand and show you.   “I haven’t” the same … I can show the absence of what I do not have.   “I should have” also the same … here is me and this is why I should have this or that … I have is not living by faith.  I have is living by proof.  And living by proof has one major flaw.”

.

In fact it’s about anything but the cross.
.

“Look at us “literally” …   Both sprawled on the grass, the cross now empty of me, all the biblical characters frozen like statues.   And this is ALL imagery!   All because I Am “The Son of God” – and I Can mess with “The Bible”.”

I only know what I know – not what I don’t know … ?

WOW!  Concise and to the point, Paul!

And that is “I have – I know”.

But “I am” is not concerned with what I know and don’t know, can prove or not prove … I am is just that: I am who I am and…
