The Glory of God

When Moses went up to meet with God the second time, he didn't eat food or drink water for 40 days/nights. This is not possible. To not have water for that long is impossible according to our understanding of the human condition. God made it possible for Moses to do it. Moses had such a spiritual experience - meeting God face to face - that he glowed. I find that fascinating. We often don't see how the spiritual realm of God interacts with our physical realm, but this was one way that God showed his Presence and his glory to the people. He shone through Moses. We too must desire that God would shine through us. We want our faces to reflect God's glory. This is not something we can attain on our own. We need to allow Jesus to be the Way for us back into the Presence of God and we need to allow our lives to be used in whatever way He wants. Lord, let your light, the light of your face, shine through me. I want to glow with your Presence. Lord, help me to do the impossible. Thank you for making a way back into your presence and thank you for even choosing to work in and through us. I want to carry around your glory on my face.
