Exodus 40:35 "Moses could not enter the Tent of Meeting because the cloud had settled upon it, and the glory of the Lord filled the tabernacle."
Moses and the Israelites had finally finished creating the tabernacle complete with all of the equipment and articles used within it. They set it up and upon completion, the glory of the Lord filled the tabernacle. God's presence filled it in such a way that Moses could not even enter it!
I have to ask myself what work has God asked me to do that in the end, his glory so enveloped it, that I could not go near it? What have I put my hands to lately that God has blessed in this way? I get that God doesn't always show up in a cloud or pillar of fire, but I would love to create more moments in which it was unmistakable that God's glory was there and was thick and heavy. I need God to lead and direct me, even specifically and meticulously, like he did with Moses so that his glory can fill the work he has for me do.
Dear Jesus, help my heart follow you and help my hands do what you want me to do, so that your glory will increase. Amen.
