Exodus 33:18 Then Moses said, "Now show me Your glory." (After Moses had interceded for the people, after the Lord has agreed to Moses' request that He accompany the people into the Promised Land, because of such an intimate time of communion with the Lord, Moses asks for more, this time for himself. Though Moses has seen and experienced wondrous manifestations of God's glorious presence, he yearns for more, for an even deeper relationship.. He wants the Lord to reveal to him the deeper level of God's goodness, of His beauty, of His excellence, all of which are included in His glory, in His glorious presence. The more we see of God, the closer we get to God, the more we desire of God. Even as we satisfy our hunger for the Lord, He graciously fills us with the desire to know Him even more. And the supply of His rich presence is joyously endless. As we seek Him, He even causes our desire for more of Him to grow. Today, we have the assurance that the Lord's interactions with us include His desire that we seek more of Him and that He will fulfill that desire by, in fact, showing us more of Him. Like Moses, who shows us how to pray, we can pray today that the Lord shows us more of His glory and goodness, more of His wondrous beauty.)
