Thanks Bill, We are really people who are unable to accomplish any good apart from the brightness of His glory exposing us to His gracious deliverance's. Our Father in heaven comes to us shining forth as our protector in a spiritual display in all the pomp and grandeur of a commander of millions and millions of chariots. Being exposed to that brightness blinds us from our tenableness. Its as if we were shaken out of our stupor by the beams of His pleasure and comfort and we were so encouraged that it translated into an assurance that all would be well when our trials had taken there course. Our spiritual vision is given to us so that we can live in the light of this grace. The stronger sight we have of His commanding in the sky the greater assurance will transpire in our finite views.  We can be utterly over come by the brightness of His commanding glory.
