God Thinking LXXXVII - Face To Face 3

"When you approach God:

• Have you weighed your words and carefully considered your petitions or have you stepped into His marvelous light, not at all moved by His presence, loosely approaching God’s throne like a smart aleck eating chips and spilling soda while casually chatting about the weather.
• Have you understood His will for you?
• Are you seeking those things that draw you closer to God?
• Have you come before God stricken with remorse, because you saw His holiness and it shown so bright as to uncover even the hidden things?
• Have you sought out what God wants with the same diligence that you have sought out what you want?
• Have you gone before the throne in silence, withholding all your requests, awaiting the voice of God to fill you and steer you.
• Before you have gone to the throne of grace, have you made up your mind to do what God says, no matter what?
• Do you want God to touch you and open your eyes to your purpose in life?
• Have you thought about making changes in your lifestyle that would free up some time to bask in His glory?
• Are you ready for God to reveal you?
• Are you willing to allow God to reveal you to others?
• Can you come and sit at the feet of Christ without remark? 

Maybe you don't really want to see God face to face."
