That bible study the other night has been a fruitful source of contemplation for me these past few days.
“If my people who are called by my name humble themselves, pray, seek my face, and turn…”
It’s that “Seek my face” that has gotten my attention. It’s part of that Prayer Quest that we are called to join in. See, Moses asked to see God’s face, yet he was denied, and permitted only to see where God had gone before.. well, okay, specifically scripture says he was permitted only to see God’s backside.
I really believe that what we seek means that merely seeing God’s passing backside is insufficient. We need to truly be in God’s presence. That means we can only be satisfied by seeing the face of God.
