Praise and Glory

Who do we give praise and glory to?  Most of the time it's all about us and it seems like we give it to famous celebrities and movie stars that we see so often on the Emmy's or the Oscar's. We are drawn to their talent since they expose it on the movie set or on the stage and we give them praise and glory for their wondrous achievements.  But the question remains, who gave them their unique set of talents, gifts, and abilities? That's a very easy question to answer and that person is God. He is the master artist and creator of the entire universe and our home planet Earth. We should give Him more honor, praise and glory than anybody else on Earth. He is the giver, and we are the receiver. God is the giver of good gifts which include everything we have on Earth and the abilities, gifts and talents He has put inside each and every one of us. We must surrender our lives to Him if we want Him to be productive in our lives. Praise God and give Him glory for His never ending love, grace and mercy He gave to us and the sacrifice He made on our behalf. Amen.
