God desires that we seek intimacy with him.

“The glory of the LORD settled on Mount Sinai.
For six days the cloud covered it,
and on the seventh day the LORD called to Moses from inside the cloud.”
Exodus 24:16 God’s Word to the Nations.

Stare at this picture long enough and the clouds seem to float over Longs Peak, at least that is what I see since I’m known for being in a fog. I have often been accused of having my head in the clouds…and for good reason.

In my opinion, there is nothing wrong with having your head in the clouds. I think Moses would agree with me.

Where’s your head today?

God invites you to stick your head in the clouds and to see his glory. For some of us that will mean pulling our heads out of the dirt where we, like an ostrich, have stuck it.

So, where is this cloud of glory?  It’s as near to you as your Bible. It’s as near as the Lord’s Supper. It’s as near as the drenching waters of Baptism.

God’s glory still resides on earth through these means which give us a taste of that day when we’ll really stick our heads in the clouds of heaven.
