Day 57 - Writer's Block!

Happy Saturday evening everyone! I must say, I've been praying about what to write about today because my day was spent with Kim going to New Hope PA to do some shopping and walk around town for our date day / night! Since I already wrote about this the other day, I'm a little stumped today. So when I get stumped, I go to Psalms in the bible. And since it's day 57, let's take a look at what Psalm 57 says! Let me take a moment to read it and then I'll give you my thoughts!!!!
Here we go:
The key word in this passage is "Glory"! "Let your Glory be all over the earth!"

But, have you ever wondered what the glory of God really is? When we speak of God’s glory, what are we talking about? If someone were to ask you, “What is glory?” would you know how to answer?

To me, Glory means: being loaded with power, reputation, or honor. But God's Glory is different! It's all of the above with superabundance, it isn’t dependent on anyone or anything else.

God is the source of all good things. He actually shares his glory with us. When we receive HIS gifts with gratitude, when we use them to for HIS honor, when we acknowledge HIM as the source of all goodness, then we are glorifying HIM.

Psalm 72:19                 Blessed be his glorious name forever; may the whole earth be filled with his glory! Amen and Amen!

Psalm 57:11

¹¹ Be exalted, O God, above the heavens! Let your glory be over all the earth!

 

I listen to all the songs I should be listening to, I go to church, I go to prayer, I do what I believe I'm supposed to do! But is it enough? Am I doing enough for the Glory of God? Can I walk around truly saying that I am loaded with power? Have a perfect reputation? Have honor in everything I do?

I'm sure I can't! We all make mistakes. But God's Glory for us is amazing, it's perfect, it's SUPERABUNDANCE!!!

So shouldn't we show our Lord and Savior the same Glory? When we receive a gift, do we use them for HIS honor? When something amazing happens in our life do we acknowledge HIM as the reason? Are we doing enough to Glorify God?

Just something to think about for tonight. Everything we do should be for the Glory of God. And it should be done with abundance just like his Glory is for us! AMEN
