You?

GODFREY JOHN

Nothing can ever stop
you being you.

                                You?

No, not a mortal or corporeal personality.
Because God is,
His is the living of Life where you are,
His is the giving of Love where you're living.

Your spiritual identity
is ever alive in Mind's knowing—
as it was before Abraham was,
as it will go on being past the year 2000.
For prophecy is ongoing spiritual history.
You take part in it here because
you glimpse the healing Word of Life
glistening through despite human chronology.
You take part in it here because
you move within
the first record of your creation:

                                           Your identity shines,
                                           undimmed as the ageless Christ.

O immutable, immortal, inimitable you!

GODFREY JOHN
