Reflection of the week: Making Much of God

When we are making much of God, we feel good about ourselves, we feel loved.
In making much of God, I obtain a sense of security, of significance. The more you love God, the more you feel loved.
The key to being happy is when you love God. Love wants to bless, love wants to give. Love doesn't keep to oneself.
I am thinking hard about this. Do I seek to make much of God in my life? Or am I just doing things, keeping busy for myself, my own ego and pride and self-gratification?
Do I check out when the going gets tough, most of all when I gain nothing out of it personally and when it becomes too inconvenient? As I examine my life, making much of God often means surrendering in love even when it may not be fully justifiable, it means showing love and kindness when it may not be reciprocated. It means labouring in love, despite of...
God always has His ways to grow me. To increase in His glory. He has never let up. By my own choices and by His divine appointment, I am always in life circumstances that call for me to make much of God. Most times like a wilful toddler and an impulsive baby (of which I am now called to raise in my family), I complain and whine. Life is sucky sometimes. But deep down, I know God will not let up on me. It will be my lifelong assignment. To be making much of God.
Thank you Lord!
