Why do you do what you do?
The here in our life can ultimately keep us from getting to the there.
In the past year and a half, I have had a decent number of learning experiences which have affected my life.
One of the biggest though was when I resigned from the football team at the University of Nebraska. [...]
God is most glorified in us when we are most satisfied in him.
In our lives, what does this look like? In life, how do we reflect and glorify God? Are we satisfied enough to glorify God alone? Do we want to glorify God? Why would God not be glorified in our lives?
If we can deeply connect our relationship with God, with a deep satisfaction of love, why would God not be glorified?
Be satisfied. Be glorified. Be loved.
How you respond to disappointment, says a lot more than how you do in success.
We need to memorize these words, “A man . . . is the image and glory of God.”
James 4:8
Come close to God and He will come close to you.
Ever been out hunting or camping .. or even out with some friends making some s’more’s! and sitting around a fire? Next time you are, try this; go ahead and take a stick and put one end of that stick into the fire. When that end gets hot and glowing red from glorying in the fire until its heat and light are transferred to it, take it out and look at it. Remind yourself that when the Bible says you are the glory of God, it means that you are like that stick and are supposed to draw near to the pure and powerful God who is your Father and radiate his heat and light to the world.
Remember: YOU are the glory of God.
