You Can Please God // Revelation 4:11

Ahh, drink deeply from reservoir of truth today’s verse reveals. God did indeed create all things, and everything exists because it pleases God. Sure, we as God’s prize creation can make some abhorrent decisions, but God set a plan in motion from humanity’s original sin to restore us to our original purpose. What is that? I’m glad you asked! Your original purpose is to be in a relationship with God and reveal God’s glory. You might look at the aspects of your life in regret, but as we explored yesterday, your repentance can make you aware of God’s relentless pursuit of all His wayward children. Keeping the cliché going, let God’s merciful grace turn your messes into His message of hope. Imagine how your very life — bumps, bruises, and all — can please God by proclaiming to the world that God is real, loves us (in spite of ourselves at times), and has a purpose for life.
