Musings of a Christian Mystic in training
Like the titles says, opinions and speculations is Christian and Gnostic Christian mysticism
I am who I am
You know even though I distinguish a difference from the creator and God, the name YHWH has a very powerful English meaning. It translates to English as, "I am who I am". Just wow. If there was ever a name to sum up who I believe God to be, that would be it and the closest to a name we can get to identifying the ineffable.

Now in our realm, we are each YHWH in that, we are all who we are, nothing more, nothing less. Even the Demiurge is who he is. This name just goes to show how much and how deep my journey is and just humbles me thinking about far I still must go. It is up to us as individuals to remember who we are and sometimes along the way we meet people that help us remember who we are.

The short of this is don't be afraid to find out who you are because you are who you are.

I still think the words "I am" are not a name but a phrase with holding the true name of God. But that's just me..

Correction YHWH means "He causes to be" but still this name means so much when taken at a deeper level and we look inward and recognize the significance of it. Thank you -xXLady RaiXx-

for us creations, it is not "I am who I am" but rather "By the grace of God, I am who I am."
