Welcome to the Word of God For June 16th 2010
Where do you Give Your Glory? To God or To yourself?
How all things are to be referred to God as the end of every work From the Imitation of Christ
My son, says our Savior Christ, I must be the end of all your works, if you desire to be happy and blessed. If you refer all goodness to me, from whom all goodness comes, then all your inward affections will be purified and made clean, which otherwise would be evil and center on yourself and other people. If you seek yourself as the goal of your work in anything, you soon fall short in your activities, and become dry and barren of all the refreshment of grace. And so, you must refer all things to me, for I give all. Behold all things as they are, flowing and springing forth from my sovereign goodness, and reduce all things to me as to the original beginning. From me both great and small, poor and rich, draw the water of life as from a quick springing well.
