The sun is like 150 million k's away. We cannot even look at it with the naken eye for a second without its glory overwhelming us. Yer we stand in the presense of the most high God without qualm. Oh how lightly we take the righteousness of Christ. We boldly approach the throne of grace yes, but we neglect to see anything. Where we are, who is there or how we got there.
UPDATE: So then I was reading Job 37 a few days after and came across this: Even now men cannot look at the light when it is bright in the skies. I was like: 'Ahhhh Job, I know how you feel'
The blood of our Lord and grace upon grace allows us to step into the throne room in an attempt to gaze upon His beauty.
"This is your job description seraphim, 'look at me!'"
See you on wednesday.
