"What on earth are you doing?!" You may have heard that phrase when your
mom told you to clean your room and found you playing with your toys
instead, or maybe when your teacher caught you passing notes in class.

But if God were to ask you this question, how would you respond?

Paul tells us that as followers of Jesus we have been put on this earth
to bring glory to God in everything we do. So what should that look
like?

God's glory is the manifestation of all that He is in His unsurpassed,
stunning perfection. It is His amazing love, His wide mercy, His deep
grace. His glory is seen in His truth, justice, wisdom, and power. To
glorify Him means that we have the high privilege of showing Him off in
a world that is totally unaware of what He is really like. Acts of mercy
to the undeserving, grace to the needy, forgiveness to an offender,
living wisely according to His will-all give glorious visibility to the
character and quality of our God.

There are a lot of misconceptions floating around about God. It's our
job to let others see what He is really like. And, when they like what
they see, let's be sure to let them know who taught us to live like
that. It's not a good idea to steal God's glory! -Joe Stowell

May our lives be a "show and tell" for God's glory.
