Reading - Psalm 115-117
Reflection Text - Psalm 115
I love how this Psalm begins. It says, "Not to us, O Lord, not to us, but to your name give glory."
What a humble cry! It says, "God may you get all the attention. God, may you get all the fame and credit."
One of the ways "giving God glory" happens to to admit when sin before God. In that, we acknowledge who we are and who we are not.
Another way is to tell stories of God's faithfulness in your life. Try this:
Tell a story of how someone/something/someplace changed your life. Now tell the story again and replace the someone/thing/place with "God." For example, instead of saying CHURCH CAMP saved my life or CHRISTIAN MUSIC saved me, tell the story of GOD saving your life, maybe using camp or music as the vehicle. This practice gets us used to noticing God's glory in our everyday lives.
Or, you could just sing the following song every moment of the day!
