All tagged Glorify

Do we give God honor, worship, and glory for all that is our life? The opportunities that come to us, the food on our table, the children we beget, and the loves we experience in all of their splendor? It is so easy to say “I did this!”, or to accept the glory when someone says of us “Here is a man who has done amazing things!” We do this every day, and if you listen to yourself as you speak you will be led to acknowledge that “I” is your favorite word... it is the most used word of all mankind.

On the day when victory has first been won, and we are just now saved and kneeling at the altar before Jesus, it is easy to sing of Him and give Him the glory He deserves. With our salvation just now secured, and the emotion of the moment fresh in our hearts we nearly burst with joy and long to carry Him on our shoulders, and in our hearts. But eternity is a long time and our emotion is known to fade, so how well will we glorify Him as we walk into the foreverness? Will the newness wear off, and the glory surrounding Him grow dim?
