The Glory of God

The principle reason for God's existence is the display of his own glory. He exists to glorify himself; he does this in many ways. It says in the Romans 1:20 that all creation speaks his praise, however, mankind reflects the glory of God like no other living thing; we are exalted above all other created things.

Bearing his own image and reflection, human beings are the most glorious creatures of all creation....God has chosen to populate the earth with billions of creatures which look like him and reflect his glory. It says in 2 Corinthians 3:18...' And we, who with unveiled faces all reflect the Lord's glory, are being transformed into his likeness with ever-increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit.' Even those who scorn or hate God, or those run from him cannot run from the fact that every breath they take, points to glory and grace of God.

What a priviledge it is to be called a child of God, he has revealed himself to us that we might praise him, and give back to him everything he first gave us. I pray that my heavenly Father would place a desire in my heart, that in every word, thought and deed, I would live to glorify God; that I would be a vessel of God's glory.
