Tuesday Truth

The last few days my prayer to God has been "God, please help me glorify You, today." Just yesterday, I prayed that same prayer. Here is what happened...

Every day after work, I get on the bus to come home. After a day at work, I want to nap and listen to my Ipod on the bus ride. So I get on the bus and I have my Ipod in my hand, ready to start relaxing. The girl sitting next to me, turns to me excitedly and says "Aren't you excited about the holidays?" Holidays, I think to myself, I am just ready for Friday. I quickly say, "I don't have any plans yet"...thinking when is it a good time to actually insert my earphones. Then it dawned on me..."God, is this you telling me to not be so self-centered?" Was this God speaking to me, telling me to give up a little "me" time, to maybe glorify Him?

I listened to this nice girl and we carried on the conversation...work, food, vacation trips. By the time I knew it...we were already at the park n ride.

Does this one tiny little thing count as glorifying God? I'm not sure, but I like to think so.

"If you love only those who love you, what reward is there for that...If you are kind only to your friends, how are you different from anyone else?" Matthew 5:46-47
