Praise In the Presence of GodSample
Clothed in His Glory
Created to know the presence of God’s glory, we yearn for its reality while little understanding the path to its recovery. We need not only forgiveness for sin but the fulfillment sin deprives us of.
As Adam and Eve snatched leaves to cover themselves, so we still attempt desperately not only to cover our naked sinfulness before God, but to substitute something for the loss of being clothed in His glory. The splendor of God’s presence was essentially what Adam and Eve wore before the Fall. Thus, the first couple’s sudden awareness had less to do with their nudity than with their sense that God’s glory had departed.
The only goal that will fully grant the desire for substance to our lives is to become clothed again in the glory of God.
