Outside this Morning
I was outside this morning drinking some Coke and had a few thoughts while looking at the moon on one end of the sky and the sun rays beaming from the other.
The stars shine bright at night, but when the sun comes out you never see them.
In the same way, If you're somewhere praising God and He shows up, the people aren't going to shine that bright because His glory fills everything you can see. God must get the Glory because the Lamb is worthy of everything. And He will not give His Glory to another.
Then I thought about that verse in Romans. Creation testifies that there is a creator, just by looking around you know there is a God. But by looking at creation it doesn't let you know your creator, it just shows that there is one. It's like finding a watch on the road and saying I know the watch maker because I found his watch. You don't know Him you just have a product of his hands! Believing and Knowing God are two completely different things, because eternal life is to know Jesus Christ, and the Kingdom of God is now at hand, at your hand! And eternity is in your heart.
Then I thought about that verse, His mercies are new every morning. And 1 John 2:1, if anybody does sin, we have one who speaks to the Father in our defense--Jesus Christ, the Righteous One. If you messed up yesterday, repent and change today. Some of us need to start believing Gods promises, especially the little ones we easily forget. Before beating yourself up about something you did yesterday, Just ask God to forgive you, bury it and move on.
