open our eyes and minds

1 Samuel 6:19-20 - but God struck down some of the men of Beth Shemesh, putting seventy of them to death because they had looked into the ark of the LORD. The people mourned because of the heavy blow the LORD had dealt them, and the men of Beth Shemesh asked, 'who can stand in the presence of the LORD, this holy God? to whom wil the ark go up from here?' 

wow these were pagans and their attitude to You Lord was submission and fear.. i'm wondering how it will be like now in our present society, will non-believers attribute holiness to You? i'm thinking that we're all deadened to Your might and power.. though nature displays Your mightiness, it's rare, even for Christians to link any disasters to Your anger and discipline much less to link that to your Holy righteous anger flaming against our sinful acts on earth.. Lord please renew our minds to see You as You are!
