Terror laced with Glory

The woman went to her husband and said, "A man of God came to me. He looked like the angel of God—terror laced with glory! Judges 13:6(The Message)

What an awesome description of the angel of God: terror laced with glory. If we all looked at God that way, what an incredible world it could be. Just think- if seeing, knowing, experiencing God provoked terror in us, we'd be much more likely to listen to Him and obey His commands. But if we could also see His glory in that moment, we'd realize that we listen and obey not out of obligation, but of desire to serve the only One who deserves glory.
