Isaiah 6

I read that well know passage in Isaiah 6:

And the foundations of the thresholds shook at the voice of him who called, and the house was filled with smoke. And I said: “Woe is me! For I am lost; for I am a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips; for my eyes have seen the King, the Lord of hosts!”(vs 4,5)

And I wonder why I do not tremble. Why, when I think of the holy God, do I not shudder?It can only be my cold heart. It is so cold, that when faced with the holiness and justified wrath of God - I neither tremble or repent.

Lord, help me to grasp the truth in your word. Help me understand your holiness and my fallenness. And finally, let me run to the cross for protection.
