Another lost and found jewel

This piece is by Helen Mallicoat and is titled "I Am"

I was regretting the past and fearing the future.

Suddenly my Lord was speaking:

"My name is I Am."

He paused. I waited. He continued,

When you live in the past with its mistakes and regrets,

It is hard. I am not there. My name is not I Was.

When you live in the future, with its problems and fears, 

It is hard. I am not there.My name is not I Will Be.

When you live in this moment, it is not hard. I am here. 

My name is I Am.
