Glorifying God

Read:  Psalm 132 / Proverbs 18 / Eccl. 12 /Luke 5

 

Psalm 132:4,5 ~ I will not give sleep to mine eyes, or slumber to mine eyelids, until I find out a place for the LORD, an habitation for the mighty God of Jacob.

Proverbs 18:1,2 ~ Through desire a man, having separated himself, seeketh and intermeddleth with all wisdom. A fool hath no delight in understanding, but that his heart may discover itself.

Ecclesiastes 12:1 ~ Remember now thy Creator in the days of thy youth, while the evil days come not, nor the years draw nigh, when thou shalt say, I have no pleasure in them;

Luke 5:32 ~ I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.

 

Our goal of glorifying God

Should be our growing, glad desire. 

It matters not what men applaud;

The goal of knowing God is higher. 

 

The aim of seeking our Creator

Should be remembered in our youth.

There is no purpose that is greater

Nor sweeter liberating truth!
