Confronted With Who God Is

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.

God is God, there is no other. Whenever a human person is confronted with who God is, there is no comparison--we are all undone in His presence. Job despised himself and repented in dust and ashes. Isaiah cried, "Woe is me! I am ruined!" when he saw the Lord, who was seated on a throne, high and exalted (Isaiah 6:1-5). Saul, who became Paul, was thrown to the ground and blinded (Acts 9:1-9). And John, who had lived with Jesus for over 3 years, fell at his feet as though dead when he saw Him in His glory (Revelation 1:9-17).

Even so, come, Lord Jesus!
