I’ve seen I Am, now I know that I am loved. I’ve seen I Am, now I know
who I am…..I wrote these lyrics over 8 years ago and I think I am just
starting to scratch the surface of what they really mean. All it takes
is one look into His eyes and everything changes. Just think about the
pioneers who have gone before us…..
Moses sees the I Am in a bush
on the backend of the wilderness and finds out who he really is. For
40 years Moses ran from his destiny and in one moment he discovers what
he was made to be. He leaves this encounter with Love and frees a
nation from 400 years of slavery. The same thing happens to Gideon. He
is hiding in fear from the enemies who are robbing his destiny. He sees
the I Am on the threshing floor and in the next moment he leaves his
fears behind and leads a nation into freedom. Just think about the
disciples after the crucifixion. They have locked themselves in a room
hiding in fear. All of a sudden, the I Am walks through the walls and
they see perfect Love standing before them and touch the scars in His
hands and feet. The men who had fearfully locked themselves in that
room came out and changed the world. The fears that once paralyzed them
no longer held them down, because they found out who they really were
and how much they were truly loved.
A broken generation is
crying out somebody tell me who I am and what I was born to do. They
are wandering through the wilderness looking for Love. My dream is to
see this generation encounter the eyes of Love and find out who they
truly are. Last month in the city of Dublin, Ireland I began to see a
flicker of this dream burring into reality, as we gathered with 400 kids
from all over the world to seek the face of the I Am. In between the
conference sessions we slipped into the back part of the hotels pub and
filmed this simple video of this song in one take. My great friend Luke
Skaggs joins me on his fiddle.
