This is to My Father’s glory, that you bear much fruit, proving yourselves to be My disciples. — John 15:8 BSB

The true way to glorify God is to allow His glory to shine through us, just as sunlight is glorified when it passes through a clear window or is reflected from a spotless mirror.

Nothing brings more glory to God than when a weak and helpless person triumphs through His strength, overcoming situations that would otherwise be impossible. When we carry the power of God into our labor, trials, and suffering—when His grace transforms our natural weakness into strength, sweetness, and purity—it glorifies Him. Our wisdom may be limited, but His divine wisdom can direct us in ways that bring about extraordinary results.

Lord, let Your glory shine through me today. Help me to reflect Your grace and power in all I do, and may my life adorn the doctrine of God in all things.
