“Yes, I am the vine; you are the branches.
Those who remain in me, and I in them, will produce much fruit.
For apart from me you can do nothing.
Anyone who does not remain in me is thrown away like a useless branch and withers.
Such branches are gathered into a pile to be burned.
But if you remain in me and my words remain in you,
you may ask for anything you want, and it will be granted!
When you produce much fruit, you are my true disciples.
This brings great glory to my Father.
John 15:5-8 NLT
***
How do we bring glory to God? The Bible’s short answer is:
by growing more and more like Jesus Christ.
Sinclair B. Ferguson
***
[God] is able to take your life,
with all of the heartache, all of the pain,
all of the regret, all of the missed opportunities,
and use you for His glory.
Charles R. Swindoll
***
For everything comes from him and exists by his power
and is intended for his glory.
All glory to him forever! Amen.
Romans 11:36 NLT
