Moses asks to see God’s glory. God reveals His goodness while protecting Moses from the fullness of His presence. God reveals Himself in mercy. Glory is not spectacular, it is goodness.

It reads in Exodus 33:18–23 Easy: Then Moses said, ‘Please, show me your glory!’ The Lord said, ‘I will let you see how great and good I am. I will tell you my name, that I am the Lord. If I choose to be kind to someone, I will be kind to them. If I choose to forgive someone, I will forgive them. But you will never see my face. Nobody can see my face and still be alive.’ Then the Lord said, ‘Look! There is a place near to me. You can stand there on a rock. When my glory passes in front of you, I will put you in a hole in the rock. I will cover your eyes with my hand as I pass by there. Then I will remove my hand so that you will see my back. But nobody must ever see my face.’

Dear Blessed Lord Jesus, show us Your glory, even when we can only glimpse it as You pass by. Hide us in Your mercy, cover us with Your hand, and let Your presence be enough. Love You, thank You, praise You and give You all the honor and glory in Jesus Precious Name Amen.
