Then Moses said,
“Now show me your glory.”

Prayer is the human response to the perpetual outpouring of love by which God lays siege to every soul.
When our reply is most direct of all, it is called adoration. In adoration we ask for nothing but to cherish Him. We seek nothing but His exaltation. We focus on nothing but His goodness. In the prayer of adoration we love God for Himself, for His very being, for His radiant joy.”
Richard Foster,
Prayer: Finding the Heart's True Home
