Exodus 34-37 Lightning Bug


Today was incredible! The presence of God was reveled in my life for the billionth time. Today I saw the faithfulness of God through one of his greatest gifts to me…my friends. Honestly, I am so blessed to live in the presence of God’s people.

Today, God confirmed his love for me through the presence of my wonderful friends.

In my reading tonight, I witnessed a bit of what it was like for Moses to literally talk to God and to sit in his presence. After he spent time with God, he literally glowed. His face shown so much that he frightened people. He actually had to cover his face, because the evidence of his relationship with God was so overwhelming to people…

That is the kind of God that I get to serve…The kind that you can’t walk away from without a suntan. We serve the kind of God who changes you on every single level.

The world can literally see his presence in our lives.

Ok…so here I am. As of now, I have not personally gotten a Moses moment…I haven’t been able to see him and to glow in response. I am still praying for the day when that will happen.

For now, I will be content with feeling a little bit of the glow that Moses felt. I feel it from time to time when I catch onto a new concept, or see a magnificent piece of creation, and I absolutely caught a glimpse of that glow tonight.

As a spent time with amazing people of God...

Laughing with eight people in the creeper van, circle after circle on the skating rink, holding hands with a friend so that she will not fall down, eating ice cream and laughing at one another…

Good conversations….

Wonderful people…

A glorious savior.

No, I have not seen the literal, glowing face of God, but I have seen small parts of it over and over again today.

Thank you to all of you who have shown me the face of my savior…thank you for bringing more of his presence into my life by bringing your presence into my life.

Thank you for being my lightning bugs.
