The All Good

My God,

Thou hast helped me to see,
that whatever good be in honour and
rejoicing, how good is He who gives them,
and can withdraw them;
That blessedness does not lie so much
in receiving good from and in thee,
but in holding forth thy glory and virtue;

This really stirred my heart. What glorious thought to realize that blessing is not so much the things I receive, but rather the glory God gets for what He does in my life.

How are lives ought to reflect His glory every passing moment.

Amen - we glorify God to, well, give Him the glory!

Thanks Jeremy for the reminder that it really is not about me.
