Do we see God’s GLORY? When we pray, “for Thine is the GLORY” are these just words? Tomorrow (Sunday) the First Baptist Family will gather around Joshua 24. It is the farewell address of Joshua and largely consists of a retelling of God’s acts of mercy toward Israel. In verses 2-13 Joshua tells God’s story, God’s accomplishments, God’s GLORY. As I read I was convicted that my own heart is often unmoved by such a story. As Henry Blackaby says, I do not “see what God is doing” or care too. I fear it is because it is not about ME. What sad evidence of my sinful heart! As we move toward Sunday I will continue to reflect on this disturbing question. Do we see God’s GLORY? Do we care to?
