Faint not at my tribulations for you

Eph 3:13 Wherefore I desire that ye faint not at my tribulations for you, which is your glory.


Mat 5:16 Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.


Glorifying God.


If we honor God with our lives, our actions and such we are glorifying Him. We ask how we can glorify the Lord and our very lives are a testament to God. We don't need to do anything extraordinary. We don't have to be important or do some great work of notority. If we live a simple life to God that is enough to glorify Him. What matters most is we live for God and do His will whatever that may be. Knowing God's will for us isn't something easy. Again we tend to think outside of the normal life and into the extraordinary events. We have to know that it's God's will that we honor Him in all we do. We have to confess Jesus Christ the Son of God as our Lord and Savior and live a life that He calls us to live. It may mean picking up our own crosses and bearing our own heartaches, our own tribulations. We have to realize it's not God's disfavor that tribulation comes to us. God isn't punishing us. God isn't turning His back on us during the worst and darkest hours of our lives. We must cling to Him and confess that He is Lord and Savior, Creator and Redeemer even when our very lives and the lives of others around us are falling apart. Not easy, no, but it is the work we are called to do, God's work is for us to believe on Jesus Christ, His Son. We have to let our light shine, any good that comes from us must be attributed to God, not ourselves, all glory to God in the Highest, forever and ever.


Amen.
