Welcome to Day 1761 of our Wisdom-Trek, and thank you for joining me.
This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom
God's Glory – Daily Wisdom
Welcome to Wisdom-Trek with Gramps. We are on Day 1761 of our trek, and it’s time to explore another nugget of wisdom, which includes an inspirational quote along with some wise words from Gramps for today’s trek. Wisdom is the final frontier in gaining true knowledge. We are on a daily trek to create a legacy of wisdom, seek out discernment and insights, and boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before.
Hello, my friend; this is Gramps. Thanks for coming along on today’s trek as we increase wisdom and create a living legacy. Proverbs 16:16 says, "How much better to get wisdom than gold, and sound judgment than silver!" If you apply the words you hear today, over time, it will help you become more healthy, wealthy, and wise as you continue your daily trek of life. So let’s jump right in with today’s nugget.
Today’s quote is from C. S. Lewis, and it is, “A man can no more diminish God's glory by refusing to worship Him than a lunatic can put out the sun by scribbling the word 'darkness' on the walls of his cell.”
God’s Glory
Is it any wonder why C. S. Lewis is one of the favorite and most respected authors of all time? His allegorical books The Chronicles of Narnia have been read for many generations and were made into popular movies. His quote for today is not only allegorical; it is a profound truth.
There is nothing that humans can do or say that diminishes God’s glory one iota. Just because a person refuses to acknowledge and worship God does not change God, it only shows the ignorance of that person. God’s glory cannot be diminished by humans. We are His creation, and imagers, so the only thing that a person should and can do is show forth God’s glorious image.
A crazy person may say there is no sun, but that does not dim its brilliance and majesty or change the fact that the sun is evident to all. Similarly, just because a person says there is no God, or does not acknowledge that God is real, does not minimize His greatness. God’s glory is evident to all.
Romans 14:11-12
For the Scriptures say,
“‘As surely as I live,’ says the Lord,
‘every knee will bend to me,
and every tongue will declare allegiance to God.’”
Yes, each of us will give a personal account to God.
As you ponder this nugget of wisdom for yourself, please encourage your friends and family to join us and then come along tomorrow for another day of our Wisdom-Trek, Creating a Legacy.
