About This Quote

The idea of greatness is often contained in something that is not always visible. The glory of God is our rear guard. It is what is most important, but most people do not recognize it. They focus on their own needs or they just cannot see how their actions or words can be used for good.

We may think that the best way to serve the cause of God is to sacrifice our own personal desires and needs. But, that’s not the glory of God. The glory of God is found in the way we use our gifts and abilities to serve Him and others.
