But," he said, "you cannot see my face, for man shall not see me and live." And the LORD said, "Behold, there is a place by me where you shall stand on the rock, and while my glory passes by I will put you in a cleft of the rock, and I will cover you with my hand until I have passed by. Then I will take away my hand, and you shall see my back, but my face shall not be seen."
What a blessing for I am unable to see Your holiness and live. Not so long as even a tinge of the old man still resides within me. Not until I am ushered into your presence covered by the Blood of the Lamb. Then to be in the Presence. Oh, what a glory that will be.
