“The heavens were opened and I saw visions of God. 
(Ezekiel 1:1)

I know I’m thinking way too big for my britches –

But I would LOVE to see something like that, Jesus! 

I can’t help feeling it would thrill me, fill me with wonder, increase my faith.  I’m pretty sure it would totally change my life.

But of course, the truth is I have no way of knowing how I would respond to such a sight.

After You showed these visions to Ezekiel, he fell facedown, reacted with bitterness and anger, then spent a week sitting in shock, overwhelmed. 

Based on the rest of this amazing book, there’s a terrible responsibility that goes along with getting to see such sights. 

Most of us couldn’t handle it. 

If I knew the cost, would I still want to see the opened heavens?
