Reading and pondering upon the things of God invites the spirit or the mind of God into our minds and hearts. Repentance, acting on those truths communicated to us, is what brings about the mighty change of heart and eventual redemption from the fall because we change our minds and hearts permanently.
After repentance the blood of the Lamb redeems us. The sin or ignorance once lived in is gone and continued sanctification through the blood of Jesus Christ continues to lift us up. As we come unto Him we see more and more of our unworthiness and allow Him to teach us how to be.
When he says, I AM, I believe he is teaching us volumes of light and truth. A state of being holy is beautiful. I long for that and hopefully don’t give up on it for myself as it can be discouraging sometimes.
One of the beautiful attributes of Jesus is his grace. He never stops offering it, always desiring to extend mercy to us as we become more sanctified and holy.
