Since last posting, I’ve entered into some really rough times. I find myself dwelling often on what it would look like if God would redeem the situation, and therefore slip into fantasy. Or I find myself dwelling on the horribleness of this time and slip into self-pity. Either way is wrong.
Therefore, in an effort to a) stop that and b) grow, I’ve decided to dwell instead of what it means to glorify God. The best cure for depression is to serve because it gets your mind off of yourself, so hopefully this follows in that same vein. The thought entered my mind to study this idea of glorifying God, and I learned that I couldn’t really give you a good answer on the practicalities of how that is done. It all seemed very abstract. “Give God the glory!” is said often, but how do you do that? Do you just say “I give you glory”? Perhaps. We shall see.
My plan is just run through a word study of ‘glory’ and all its versions and see what the Bible teaches me, and (hopefully) post those findings here.
