God’s Glory

By Linda Tancs

It’s a pleasure to see a famous person who wins a major award give God the glory. We should indeed be thankful to God for the successes in life, but God’s glory is much more evident in the least expected wins. His glory really shines when we bring fruit out of dead places. Consider the story of Gideon. He defeated 135,000 Midianites with 300 men (Judges 7) after a much bigger troop was trimmed by God. The trimming was necessary so that the Israelites would not think they won because of their great abilities or strategy. You may very well have skills, strengths or talents you don’t even see yet, and when they bloom, God will get the glory.
