And when Moses was afraid to trust his own demonstration of God's power and presence and of man's unity with God, even then he was not left comfortless, but was shown that his need would be met through the cooperation of his brother-man. This wonderful name, I AM, also conveys a sense of God's presence and the fact that He is the one, infinite Being, here and now. There is no futurity in this name I AM. In Christian Science, heaven, health, joy, abundance are present realities. They manifest God as I AM. Man's unity with God is as true now as it ever will be and a Christian Science treatment is based on this fact. If it is going to be true next week or Mrs. William B.
