presence of God

How would you respond upon entering my presence? Do not be quick to form a response and assume it is correct. My word gives several examples of people who diligently followed me, but when they came before me they were devastated and undone. Isaiah declared, ‘woe is me’, and my beloved John kept falling prostrate. These were not easy experiences for them, but they persevered. When you enter my presence your choices are to press on even though it is painful and requires your transformation, or to draw back and depart from me. Which of these will be your response?
