More on Glory

Romans 3:23 says, "All have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God."

The more I consider this verse, the more I am convicted. It all began with Kay Arthur's explanation of the definition of the word 'glory'. The dictionary definition she used said glory is a correct estimate or understanding of the worth of something or someone. Another definition said it means 'weightiness'. Whichever definition is used, the fact is we have underestimated,undervalued, and dismissed the actual power and worth of our LORD God Almighty.

We stand without excuse indeed when we are beneath the starry skies or see individual snowflakes gently falling, or see a baby's shy, gentle smile. All these things declare God's glory. Do I? Do you? Why not? It's because we have indeed fallen short in so many ways.

Holy One, please help us declare your glory in our lives every day. Help us see Your glory clearly and let it lead us to truly worship You. Amen Doma
