“Please show me your glory.” (Exodus 33:18) That was Moses’ request of God after pleading with him to spare the Israelites after that nasty incident involving a golden calf (Exodus 32). By this time, Moses had already met God at a burning bush, had a front-row seat to the Ten Plagues, crossed the Red Sea on dry ground, and was eating a daily ration of Manna. Hadn’t he already seen God’s glory? Yes, he had, but Moses understood that there is always more of God to discover, and he wanted it all.
In our world, a little bit of God is enough for most people—just enough to get a spiritual lift, to feel better, and to be sure of heaven, but not so much that they become aware of sin or start getting an urge to live like Jesus. How about you? How much of God is enough?
