Job 42:5-6
My ears had heard of You but now my eyes have seen You. Therefore I despise myself and repent in dust and ashes.
The revelation of God, who He is, showed the inherent sinfulness and shame of Job's humanity.
God is utterly good, holy, beautiful. When we as humans see the actual Truth of who God really is, we always are fully aware of our own deficiencies. We are never enough in ourselves to stand before Almighty God, but are forced to our knees in obeisance. God is all and we are nothing.
Only in Christ do we have standing and authority.
Even so, come, Lord Jesus!
