When the I is rightly placed

Beulah M. Roegge

Have you noticed—
unite becomes untie
when the i is wrongly placed?
Where do I place my I, I ask
and laugh ruefully
at my unraveling.

"I AM THAT I AM," Moses heard Ex. 3:14 .
and placing the I with God
learned the freedom of obedience
in serving Him and His plan for man.

"I and my Father are one," John 10:30.
Jesus said and thus confessed
that he had no power of his own
but owned all that God possessed.

"I, or Ego" is Us, Science explains. Science and Health, p. 588 .
Man and woman forever unchanged,
all governed by one Principle
each distinctly individual.

Servant, Son, and Scientist
unite in every one of us—
saved from sin's undoing
when the I is rightly placed.
