May We Be Diminished
His sovereign rule lasts and lasts, H is kingdom never declines and falls. Life on this earth doesn’t add up to much, but God’s heavenly army keeps everything going. No one can interrupt His work, no one can call His rule into question. Daniel 4:35 {MSG} I work at a church and at our Tuesday meeting our worship leader, Ric, shared a devotion based on this scripture. His observation - we are accounted as nothing, and yet, created in God's image. How can these two ideas be reconciled? In his devotion, he offered as we grow in God's image - as we lean into HIS image - we grow in His compassion, love and grace. By allowing our self to diminish - God becomes greater. There's a higher calling to this life - and it involves maturity, seeking, prayer, growth and worship. The beauty of our God is that He gave us free will {which is also the super hard part of this life}. Every step of our growth in God requires making the right choice. There can be no true worship unle
