We cannot look at you or we will die.
We cannot hear your voice or we will die.
We cannot touch the ark or we will die.

Holy, righteousness, sanctification.

Do I really know the meaning of these words?

Do I really know the complete extent of the word on the cross?

Can I know?

I am a gentile born thousands of years after the bible was written.

How can I know?

What is man that you should think of him,
the son of man that you should care for him?
-Psalm 8

Who am I that you should die for me?
Who am I that you should know my name?
Who am I that you should know the hairs on my head?

Creator of the universe, the star breather, the mountain mover, who am I that You should love me?

When I think of my sins (and they are many) I struggle to swallow the gift of grace.
You are good God, You are too good.
