Father,

Old Testament Reading - A vision of God

thumb

1The year King Uzziah died I saw the Lord! He was sitting on a lofty throne, and the Temple was filled with his glory. 2Hovering about him were mighty, six-winged angels of fire. With two of their wings they covered their faces, with two others they covered their feet, and with two they flew. 3In a great antiphonal chorus they sang, “Holy, holy, holy is the Lord Almighty; the whole earth is filled with his glory.” 4Such singing it was! It shook the Temple to its foundations, and suddenly the entire sanctuary was filled with smoke.

5Then I said, “My doom is sealed, for I am a foul-mouthed sinner, a member of a sinful, foul-mouthed race; and I have looked upon the King, the Lord of heaven’s armies.”

6Then one of the mighty angels flew over to the altar and with a pair of tongs picked out a burning coal. 7He touched my lips with it and said, “Now you are pronounced ‘not guilty’ because this coal has touched your lips. Your sins are all forgiven.”

8Then I heard the Lord asking, “Whom shall I send as a messenger to my people? Who will go?”

And I said, “Lord, I’ll go! Send me.”

. . . . .Isaiah 6:1-8

God set us free to worship without fear;*
holy and righteous all the days of our life.
