God's Goodness

-

Good 
morally excellent; virtuous; righteous; pious

God is good. But not just any kind of goodness.
He is always good.
His goodness is perfect.
We can never be that kind of good. We are bad sometimes and make mistakes, we have sin.
So because He is so good we have many reasons to glorify Him.
He is worthy of being praised and honoured.
It is the least we can do after all he has done for us. He tells us to glorify him but not in a selfish proud way as you might think. I mean like I just said, we should want to and there are many reasons why we should.
Reasons like: He is worthy, He made everything, He gives us life, He loves us etc.
So if we acknowledge this we will/should want to glorify Him. Love Him with all our heart, mind and strength.
For example loving Him with our minds means getting rid of thoughts that don't honour Him, that don't glorify Him, and replacing them with things that do.

That might not be easy.

But let me ask you this...

How much are you willing to do for the glory of the Almighty God?

August Favourites

Wow, August has come to an end already! I am so excited that Spring is basically here now. The sunny weather and longer days have really done something to my creative juices, which seemed to be hibernating during winter and now there are awake and flowing again. Books The Beautiful Pretender by Melanie Dickerson My goodness, I enjoyed this book so much! I have a full review in the works but I definitely had to mention it in this post. It's like the second book its series(Medieval Fairytale series). I have just started the third and final book, The Noble Servant and it is equally as intriguing as The Beautiful Pretender. And the cover of TBP....so pretty! Sarah, Plain, and Tall by Patricia MacLachlan This book has become a new all-time favourite of mine! I found this on audiobook on my library's app and since I'd seen the movies a long time ago I decided to give it a go and get a boost on my Goodreads reading challenge. But I never would have known how much...
