My Fame His Fame

DEŇ 2 Z 5

KNOWN

We try to become famous when we should long to be known by Him. These concepts are so easily confused, but the difference means everything about where we aim our lives. One leads to separating our purpose from His, while the other leads into the intimacy for which we were created.

In Exodus 33, Moses pleads with God to go with him, and God agrees specifically because Moses was known by God: “I will do the very thing you have asked, because I am pleased with you and I know you by name.” (v. 17)

This moment—the one in which God grants my request—is usually the one that satisfies me and causes me to walk away. But not Moses! No, Moses is not satisfied with a narrow answer. He wants to see God. He wants to experience and be known by God: “Now show me your glory.” (Exodus 33:18)

Guess what? God said yes! When Moses insisted and persisted, God hid Moses in a cleft in the rock, covered him with His hand, passed by, and then removed His hand so that Moses could see Him. (Exodus 33:19–23)

Let’s no longer waste time pursuing our own fame. Let’s no longer accept a narrow answer from God. He is ready and eager to reveal more of Himself to us. He longs to know and be known. God, show us Your glory!
