God’s glory can be seen all around us. Never take it all for granted. HE displays HIS hands so we will honor and worship HIM. But it’s our every day self-glory that gets us into trouble. Who is on the throne of our lives? Who comes first? Because in GOD’S plan, it’s not about us, … More SELF-GLORY/GOD’S GLORY
