Your dreams mean nothing if you're not glorifying God.
Ever have one of those Sunday's where you feel like your
pastor is preaching directly to you? I
had such a day yesterday. The topic was
Glorifying God. And not just glorifying
God, period. Glorifying God in literally
every aspect of your life. To the point
where you can say "It's not about me being happy, it's about glorifying
God." We were created to give God
glory. One of the main points that
really hit home for me was to glorify God through your suffering. Remain thankful to God and do not become
bitter. It's so easy to become selfish
when you're in pursuit of happiness.
Everyone does it, heck, I've done it.
I've made plenty of mistakes in my life while in the pursuit of happiness. I have to ask myself though, am I glorifying
God by my actions? By pursuing what I'm
pursuing, am I giving glory to God? Will
His name be honored? Jana, glorify God
instead of prioritizing 'happiness'.
