"God speaks to man...yet man somehow still lives!"

That is the sentiment of Moses' history in Deuteronomy 5:24. How is it possible that Eternal God would enter the realm of creation display a pico-helping of his glory (see same verse).

This is not the god of the Egyptians or the Babylonians or the....well, just fill in the blank. We do not have some sort of transcendant, un-interested, hard-to-get, untouchable god. No, the same God that visited Moses did not show up to you necessarily in a literal sense as he did to Moses...but what is a "literal visitation" when you know you have seen so little of His glory anyway? I don't know, but Moses saw this glory and we saw his glory and we still lived...somehow...we still lived!

Remember, God said, "I will visit you" when He promised a deliverance from Egypt (Genesis 50:24-25). What? Wait a minute, I don't remember that! Of course you don't Israelite! That happened 38 or so years ago and you want something sensational today.

Look at your life: The timing of things; the harmony of things; the peace in your soul in troubled times; the bills that get paid; the times when you should be (humanly speaking) falling a part.....but you don't...because you know God still visits--and He's visiting now...and you live.

Until the time of His literal visitation (1 Peter 2:12), we simply "gird up" and look forward (1 Peter 1:13) and live (John 17:3).
