An excerpt from Max Lucado, my favorite author and preacher, and his book It's Not About Me:
Moses asked to see it on Sinai....When Ezekiel saw it, he had to bow. It encircled the angels and starstruck the shepherds in the Bethlehem pasture. Jesus radiates it. John beheld it. Peter witnessed it on Transfiguration Hill. Christ will return enthroned in it. Heaven will be illuminated by it. ................GLORY....GOD's GLORY!
I really love this! You know the whole earth displays God's beautiful nature....His glory....rivers flow with water and give new life to plants and vitality to animals. Majestic mountians remind us of the grandiose and awesome hand and workmanship of God. (psalm 140)
How much more should His precious creation.....whom he made in His likeness.....YOU AND ME...display HIS GLORY....
Wow! He has called us forth above all the rest of his GLORIOUS creation to be HIS HANDS and FEET....to walk on this earth in the knowledge and love of JESUS....
How awesome this privelege to be apart of HIS PLAN.....to be able to pray to our CREATOR and for HIM to answer our weak voices...because of his great love for us and desire to be near to us....
Thank you Jesus.
Lord I love living with the knowledge of your greatness. I am humbled to be apart of your PLAN...I desire to be more like you and to be found in your presence..help me LORD everyday to find myself at your feet drinking from the river of life....taking in all that is possible...I love you LORD...help me to love you more and serve your people with un-faltering love and kindness.
