                                             .    

Highlight Passage [Context]: … Proverbs 3:5-6 [NLT] … 

Trust in the Lord with ALL your heart; and do not depend on your own understanding. Seek His will in ALL you do, and He will show you which path to take.  

… God, thru Solomon, shows that when we use things from God’s creation for our good, we’re following His way in life.  


Highlight Passage [Context]: … John 1:3 [NLT] …  

God created everything though Him, and and nothing was created except through Him.  

… God created mankind to rule over all God had created for His glory.    


Highlight Passage [Context]: … Romans 8:28 [NLT] … 

28 And we know that God causes everything to work together for the good of those who love God and are called according to his purpose for them. 

… Paul teaches truth about ALL THINGS being created for our good and His glory.

16  … Everything was created though Him and for Him.  

… Paul shows that God created all things for His glory.      


My Devotional JournalToday's Our Daily Bread author, Kirsten Holmberg… AT THIS LINK  writes of scientists discovering that they could fabricate a very strong and effective glue by using the secretions of a snail, illustrating, very practically, the reality that God’s creation was made for our good and His glory.  


My friend, as we look around, do we recognize that God created all we see in His creation for our good.  If mankind can see and use the secretions of a snail for us to create a glue for our good, do we recognize, as Paul shared in Romans 8:28 that all things were created for our good and God’s glory?   And the question also is … do we see life that way and are we choosing to use God’s creation for His glory? 


Will you join me in a robust “Hallelujah” in thanks for all God has created for our good with our commitment to do all we can to use His creation for His glory.    


My THANKFULNESS: ... Oh, Abba Father, thank You, King Jesus, … for creating all I see for my good … and Your glory.     

My Prayer Today: Oh Abba Father, ... King Jesus, ... . I pray that all reading here will join me, …  to give thanks for Your creation, doing all we can today to use it for Your glory, Lord.      Amen
