Understanding Hinneni: Part 2 - by Hinneni (innh) - Here I Am

Hinneni - innh

"God called to Moses from the middle of the bush.
'Moses! Moses!' God said.
'Here I am', Moses answered.
(Exodus 3:1-6)


------------------------------

"Here I am" is the first Expression of our Life.
It is Response to the first awareness that we have life, that we are here, that we are somewhere, that we live and have Being within us.
It is our first Response to the 'Burning Bush' we discover within our selves, to the Fire of Being within, which is God's Breath within us.
It is Response.
It is Reaction to the wonder of being alive which we have throughout our lives, discovered.
It is the first Cry of the child, and it is the last Sigh of the elder.
As a (poet) once wrote, this Expression, this Name, shares with that divine Name revealed the very same chapter of the Scripture,......
'The Universe resounds with the joyful cry, 'I Am!"


AMEN.
