here in your presence

1 samuel 5-6.
God moves against the philistines when the ark is captured and placed in their temple.
God sends tumors and rats on the towns that try to keep the ark.
God causes a statue of their god to break apart, simply because of his presence near it.
God directs cows to travel through the land of philistia and make its way to the israeli border
God wipes out seventy israelites because they make an attempt to look into the ark.

1 samuel 6.20: "'Who is able to stand in the presence of YHWH, this Holy God,' they cried out. 'Where can we send the ark from here?'"

(you placed the stars in the sky, and you taught the sun to rise. our God is greater, our God is stronger, God you are higher than any other. who am i that you are mindful of me? that you hear me, when i call?)
