“All sin, at its root, is failing to give God glory. It is loving anything else more than God. Refusing to bring glory to God is prideful rebellion, and it is the sin that caused Satan’s fall — and ours, too. In different ways we have all lived for our own glory, not God’s. The Bible says, “All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.”

“Knowing your purpose motivates your life. Purpose always produces passion. Nothing energizes like a clear purpose. On the other hand, passion dissipates when you lack a purpose. Just getting out of bed becomes a major chore. It is usually meaningless work, not overwork, that wears us down, saps our strength, and robs our joy.”

“VERSíCULO PARA RECORDAR: «Todo comenzó en él y para los propósitos de él». Colosenses 1:16b (PAR). PREGUNTA PARA CONSIDERAR: A pesar de toda la publicidad que me rodea, ¿qué puedo hacer para recordar que la vida consiste en vivirla para Dios y no para mí mismo?
