| POINT TO PONDER:It's all for Him. |
| REFLECT: How did today's reading impact you? |
| It's all for Him. The ultimate goal of the universe is to show the glory of God. It is the reason for everything that exists, including you and I. |
"For everything comes from God alone. Everything lives by His power, and everything is for His glory" (Romans 11:36 - Living Bible) |
Jesus honored God by fullfilling His purpose while He lived on earth. You and I bring glory
to God in the same way.
The rest of this 40 day journey is our deepening understanding and commitment to God's five
purposes for our lives:
The challenge for me today is - Will I live for my own comfort, happiness, pleasure, goals, or will I choose to live the rest of my life for God's pleasure? I leave two verses that have encouraged me with the fact that God will do the work of changing me, as I make the choice. I take the first step towards Him, He brings me along in the journey! |
"As the Spirit of the Lord works within us, we become more and more like Him, and reflect His glory even more." (2 Corinthians 3:18 - New Living Translation) "Everything that goes into a life of pleasing God has been miraculously given to us by getting to know, personally and intimately, the One who invited us to God." (2 Peter 1:3 - The Message) |
| There is no more important step than asking God to begin the relationship. Please let us know if we can help whereever you are in the journey! |
| PRAYER: "Gracious Father, it is all about You. Remind me of Your glory in the profound and simple today. I desire to add my voice to all of creation in giving You glory today. Amen" |
| FOR MY CONSIDERATION: Who is getting the glory? |
This week's Memory verse:
"For everything, absolutely everything, above and below, visible and invisible... everything got started in Him and finds its purpose in Him" (Colossians 1:16 - The Message) |
