i am not
but i know
I AM
Interesting title to say the least. This book is the story of God, the I AM in the Bible. So much of our thoughts go His way only when we are in trouble or need something. We even like to blame Him for anything that goes wrong in our lives. Do we thank Him when things are going well?

Louie Giglio has a knack for painting the picture of how Big God is and how small we are. To those of us who strive to be in control of every area of our lives, it is a great book to help us bring in perspective the realization of our smallness. The wonderful thing about this is when we get it, there is a rest that only God can give. As Louie says " let go of our own story and let God be God in our lives". It is not about us but about the great . I AM.
God wants our trust and to follow him and then see the amazing adventure HE takes us on. With God we become an overwhelmingly powerful team. As we go through our life the answer to all our needs is the:
I AM THE PROVIDER
I AM THE HEALER
I AM THE DELIVERER
I AM THE CREATOR
I AM THE SHEPHERD
I AM THE COMFORTER
and the list goes on. If we allow Him, we can call Him friend, imagine the creator of the universe as your friend and lover of your soul. WOW! I guess you can't beat that.
If you are visual and not prone to read, Louie Giglio has a DVD called " How Great is Our God", after watching this you will never be the same or even look at golf balls the same either.
How awesome that God would want to spend time & care about us, a speck of dust in the grand scheme of things.
May God Bless and Expand Your Territory!

Beautiful review... I love that the wording gets smaller as you describe how small we really are in comparison to our GREAT GOD.
