Once when I was in college, I had a positive and very personal, life-changing event happen. Then just thirty minutes later, I bumped into a friend. He looked at me with a quizzical expression and said, "What happened to you? You're glowing!" No words. Still in the moment. Those who know us well just, well, know.

Moses came down from the mountain having had one of these moments of profound change, unquestioned beauty, and unspeakable holiness. Scripture says he glowed. They did not know what had been revealed to their leader — something had transformed Moses. Change can be scary to some, and "they were afraid to come near." Moses saw this and calmed them by being very clear and sharing what God had said for them all to hear.

When we encounter the holy, embrace the miracle, for what God has chosen to reveal to us. This alone makes us special beyond belief, regardless of the message we are to receive.
