For HIS Glory. this is the title of my blog which I need to remember everyday of my life. I was ordained on May 15th. 1999 and this year I have completed eight years of priesthood. When looking back, I have mixed feelings racing and chasing me in both my mind and heart. Every day was supposed to be for HIS Glory but when evaluating myself, can I really say that?
In general, I tried my best to be for HIS Glory but I admit many times I lost vision. Many times I just got busy with service and forgot the Lord of the service. If I dont remind myself everyday of living for HIS Glory, it is so easy to be satisfied with the least. Least expectations, least achievements, least self-search.
This blog actually is for me more than for any body else. I want to keep myself accountable and always checked against God's standards. I can never forget when one time, we had Bishop Makarios the eritrian and went to a visit with him. As he was knocking on the door, he said in a very low voice: "Glorify your name O'Lord" I will never forget this phrase. I started to say it in my heart before every visit or sermon or anything I do. This prayer should be every servant's fervent request from God. If we only put HIS Glory before anything we plan or do. If we only put HIS Glory as our standard in our families and churches. Well, this is at least my request day and night.
