the glory of the Lord

Moses said, “This is the thing which the Lord has commanded you to do, that the glory of the Lord may appear to you.”

1 Kings 8:11 NASB

so that the priests could not stand to minister because of the cloud, for the glory of the Lord filled the house of the Lord.

Psalm 104:31 NASB

Let the glory of the Lord endure forever; Let the Lord be glad in His works;

Luke 2:9 NASB

And an angel of the Lord suddenly stood before them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them; and they were terribly frightened.

Revelation 4:11 NASB

“Worthy are You, our Lord and our God, to receive glory and honor and power; for You created all things, and because of Your will they existed, and were created.”

Can you recognize the glory of the Lord? Often we let it pass by.

Very simply I ask that you allow yourself today to find the glory of the Lord and spend time enjoying it and even sharing with others. It may be in the wonder of creation. It can be found in the profound answer of prayer. Or it might be found where I found it last night.

That was in the smiles of some children. I continue to be amazed by the smiles of the children who come to our back2school program.

The glory of the Lord was all over them last night. And I am still enjoying it today!

Have you heard of EDITH BURNS?

Edith Burns was a wonderful Christian who lived in San Antonio, Texas . She was the patient of a doctor by the name of Will Phillips. Dr. Phillips was a gentle doctor who saw patients as people. His favorite patient was Edith Burns. One morning he went to his office with a heavy heart and it was because of Edith Burns. When he walked into that waiting room, there sat Edith with her big black Bible in her lap earnestly talking to a young mother sitting beside her. Edith Burns had a habit of introducing herself in this way: "Hello, my name is Edith Burns. Do you believe in Easter?" Then she would explain the meaning of Easter, and many times people would be saved. Dr. Phillips walked into that office and there he saw the head nurse, Beverly. Beverly had first met Edith when she was taking her blood pressure. Edith began by saying,"My name is Edith Burns. Do you believe in Easter?" Beverly said, "Why yes I do." Edith said, "Well, what do you ...

wash feet, sharing hope

John 13:4-5,14 NLT So he got up from the table, took off his robe, wrapped a towel around his waist, 5 and poured water into a basin. Then he began to wash the disciples’ feet, drying them with the towel he had around him… 14 And since I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you ought to wash each other’s feet. Jesus set the example we follow. He served. He valued and gave value to others. That is why we choose to serve. For 18 years our church has shared an outreach called back2school, and for 16 of those years we have chosen to give students brand new shoes and socks as well as washing their feet. It is one of the most important parts of this event. Washing feet is a humbling experience where both the give and the receiver learn how to share some moments that might change their lives. Jesus said we should do this. See the verse above. Follow His example, do what He did, and give far more than you will ever know....
