Goosebumps

In the past God spoke to our forefathers through the prophets at many times and in various ways, but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed heir of all things, and through whom he made the universe. The Son is the radiance of God's glory and the exact representation of his being, sustaining all things by his powerful word. After he had provided purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty in heaven. [A]bout the Son he says, "Your throne, O God, will last for ever and ever, and righteousness will be the scepter of your kingdom. You have loved righteousness and hated wickedness; therefore God, your God, has set you above your companions by anointing you with the oil of joy."
Hebrews 1:1-3, 8-9 NIV
Goosebumps...this passage gets me everytime. Why? I love kingdom imagery, and to think of Jesus sitting at the right hand of God fills me with awe. I love being in awe of God. If only I could be in a perpetual state of awe.
