The Lord reveals Himself and His glory through creation. But He also does it in various ways through His people. In the book of 1 Peter, we see that God has made us "a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people." As we tell others that He has called us "out of darkness into His marvelous light" and shown us mercy (2:9-10), He receives the glory that is due to Him alone. Through our trials, Jesus receives praise, honor, and glory as our faith is "tested by fire" (1:6-7). People are watching us, and when they see us resisting temptation some will "glorify God" (2:12). We also point others to Him when we obey laws and authority "for the Lord's sake" (2:13). And through using the gifts and abilities God has given us to serve others, He is "glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom belong the glory and the dominion forever" (4:11). The Lord says, "My glory I will not give to another" (Isaiah 42:8). If God's number-one priority is to reveal His glory, our privilege and responsibility as His people is to reflect that glory.

From the Pastor: Praise the Lord! Let's ask God to continue to bless our services with His awesome presence. The Bible says that if we will draw near to Him, He will draw near to us. God is faithful to keep His promises. Let's experience more of His great presence.
