Glory? What is that?

God is, first and foremost, committed to His Glory. Glory is God’s splendor, beauty, and abundance. So, God is committed to His splendor, beauty, and abundance above all.
We are not the center of the universe (as much as we would like to think we are). God is the center of the universe. His commitment to us is only in light of His commitment to Himself first. God’s glory is the reason for creation. By our satisfaction in Him, He is most glorified.

In this, we find a very uncomfortable question: Did God free you to make much of yourself or did He free you to make much of Him?
