We address Adonai.
Ruler.
Lord of might.
Law-giver.
Appearing to Moses in the burning bush.
Appearing to the Israelites in the cloud and thunder and fire at Sinai.
And what is the petition connected to this God who seems so big and scary and fierce?
"Come with an outstretched arm and redeem us."
Redeem us.
That's not scary.
That's rescue.
All of God's bigness and fierceness is directed toward saving us and defending us.
