This morning I was interested 
in a response to God 
that I Expected to be 
FEAR

The people and the king 
build the Temple 
On the day it is dedicated 
God shows up. 
Big time. 

2Chron 7:1 When Solomon finished praying,
fire came down from heaven
and consumed the burnt offering
and the sacrifices,
and the glory of the LORD filled the temple.
2 The priests could not enter the temple of the LORD
because the glory of the LORD filled it.
3 When all the Israelites saw the fire coming down
and the glory of the LORD above the temple,
they knelt on the pavement
with their faces to the ground,
and they worshipped
and gave thanks to the LORD,
saying, "He is good; his love endures for ever."

Their response.....
...on the ground
...face to the pavement
Worship

I get that.

But the other piece...
- Gave thanks
- He is Good....
- His Love endures
Forever.....

Awe....
not fear
and
amide the fire
and smoke
and presence so strong
men could not enter....
A profound sense of:
His Goodness
His Love....

Wow.

Lord,
Your presence.
You,
fill me with Awe.
As I worship
You fill me
an indescribable sense of
completeness
and
thankfulness

I am found
I am loved
by You.

I am
Changed.
Yeah.
