101 things...#2

I am made to glorify God.

The first thing that I think of when I hear this is Isaiah 63:1
They will be called oaks of righteousness, a planting of the Lord for the display of my splendor.

In "The Calling" Gary Barkalow explains that our calling in life is to Glorify God with the weightiness of our life. Our profession or our family roles (mother, wife, etc...) are assignments and assignments may change. But our calling does not.
He will bring glory to me by taking from what is mine and making it known to you.
John 16:14


In Exodus I love the example that is given for the physical presence of God!
While Aaron was speaking to the whole Israelite community, they looked toward the desert, and there was the glory of the Lord appearing in the cloud.
Exodus 16:10
