Great I

The author would take his readers on a ride from the Self-Revelation of the I-AM that the Lord God is with Moses, through King David, to the I-AM of the Messiah of Israel and of the Incarnation, and to the I-AM of the Dogma of the Church as the People of God. It is argued that the Grace and Truth of the Lord God cannot rightly be grasped in all of their depth in the world without becoming able to integrate both the continuity and the discontinuities of this Revelation with us, even in our own times.

I am pleased to introduce Angelica the Great I Am, an early reader book. It will inspire and introduce careers to elementary school readers, particularly those who are minority and come from low-income and first-generation families. In Angelica the Great I Am, a young girl magically discovers through her dreams her real purpose for living. So often children get lost within the information age where so much is absorbed. It often becomes difficult to find oneself, and it subsequently manifests into adulthood. At what magical point in time do children first learn to just appreciate who they are and later learn more about themselves and how their uniqueness contributes to the world? I envision this book to help children love themselves, to help children tap into their individual gifts and talents early in life, and to help children experimentally examine careers that will spark their fullest potential.

At some point, in our lives, most of us will question who, what and why we are. PG and the Great I AM addresses those questions through the story of a young squirrel who goes through experiences similar to those of the human fledgling or even adult, for that matter. Sometimes humorous sometimes adventurous but always searching for the One thing to give him the answer he seeks. Other species offer their answers to only frighten or confuse PG and, just as he was about to give up, the answer comes. Enjoy the trip with PG as he searches and finds that the answer has always been right there inside him. The Author hopes this story will entertain and enlighten children of all ages and those who read this book will be able to find the Great I AM within themselves.

The Great I Am El Gran Yo Soy I get strength from God and my mother. I get perseverance from God and my father. Even when I struggle, Im on my knees praying, because I know Hes near. What do I have to fear? God is with me. Strong I am in the greatness of God, THE GREAT I AM!

St. John's gospel offers seven metaphors about Christ. He is the bread of life, the light of the world, the good shepherd, the door, the way, the truth, and the vine, a universal symbol of nourishment. He also promises everlasting life for the faithful.
