1/10/12- Giving God the Glory

What is the main goal of human life?
The main goal of human life is to glorify God and enjoy Him forever.


"Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit.  Rather consider others better than yourselves." (Phil. 2:3,4)


"For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ; for it is the power of God for those who believe- first for the Jew but also for the Gentile."  (Romans 1:16) 






Thoughts: There are a lot of Tebow haters out there.  But this is a symptom.  There are a lot of people who do not want Christians to be bold about their faith for it makes them uncomfortable.  Yet Tebow is doing what he has been taught by others and by scriptures- not seeking credit for himself but glorifying God.
    Just because you are a Christian, however, and seeking to glorify God, doesn't mean you'll win every football game.  There are lots of people who seek to honor God but cannot play at Tebow's level.  But glorifying God doesn't hurt your game.  It may give you focus, purpose, strength, courage, and confidence (even when others lose theirs in you- as many lost theirs  against Tebow last week). 



Prayer: Help me to not be ashamed of the gospel, but seek to honor you.
