For My Glory or God’s Purpose?
“Let the tree of no other nation proudly exult in its own prosperity, though it be higher than the clouds and it be watered from the depths. For all are doomed to die, to go down to the depths of the earth. They will land in the pit along with everyone else on earth.” (Ezekiel 33:14, NLT)
It doesn’t matter how great I am (or think I am – a legend in my own mind) nor does it matter how many resources and natural advantages I possess, in the end, I (along with every other person, organization, and nation) will go down to the grave. The question at the end is, “While I am here, how will I use the resources and advantages I have? For my own boasting or to accomplish God’s purpose?” Perhaps an even better question is, “How can I use the resources and advantages I have for the sake of God’s purpose today?
Thank you for your support and encouragement. I hope this has helped you on your own journey through the Bible and that you continue to grow and prosper in Him.
