The Glory of God
This is part 2 of the previous post, ‘Glory’. In Exodus 33, Moses asked God to show him His Glory. After the grievous sin committed by the Israelites, he wondered if God would still be with them. Moses wanted reassurance, one that goes deep. He knew that beholding God in his very essence, was the only thing that could strengthen him again. … So, what is the Glory of God? According to God himself, it is all of His goodness. All of it, all at once and all of the time.
