A glimpse into what is running through my mind.

True depiction of honesty.

Man’s chief end is to glorify God, and to enjoy Him forever. God’s primary goal is His own glory, and that is also His goal for us. We are made to display the majesty of God, and we no purpose or significance apart from Him. Our highest joy and true reason for being is to take pleasure in the infinite glory of God: “Not to us, O Lord, not to us, but to your, name give glory” (psalm 115:1)

—What is the Christian Worldview? By Philip Graham Ryken

… Each age represents an advance over the preceding age, when looked at from the standpoint of what God is giving and doing for man. It is true that sinful man is always failing; but where sin abounded, grace did much more abound. Thus to the old question, “Is the world getting better or worse?” From one standpoint we might answer,”The age is getting worse, but the course of history by the grace of God is moving forward.

spiritualinspiration: “For in the day of trouble he will keep me safe in his dwelling; he will hide me in the shelter of his tabernacle and set me high upon a rock” (Psalm 27:5, NIV) What a wonderful promise found in today’s scripture that when you seek God, when you serve Him with your whole heart, He will hide you in His shelter. You can be so connected to Father God that you are untouchable and invisible to the enemy! You are hidden in Him! That means no matter what is happening around you, you will have strength, confidence and rest greater than ever before knowing that you are safe in Him. Challenges may come your way, but you won’t be worried about them. You know that, ultimately, things are going to work out for your good. You know that no weapon formed against you shall prosper. People may be talking, trying to make you look bad, but you don’t even give it a second thought. You know that your future is too bright to be distracted. You know they don’t control your destiny. You just keep on being your best, walking in integrity, meditating on the Word, worshiping throughout the day, and stay hidden in Him!

I pray because I can’t help myself. I pray because I’m helpless. I pray because the need flows out of me all the time- waking and sleeping. It doesn’t change God- it changes me.
