Well...Glory Be!

So whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God. (1 Corinthians 10:31, NLT)

If you grew up hearing the phrase, 

“Well glory be!” 

(sounds like, Well...glawwwwwwy be!")

... you may be from Oklahoma.

In our homeschool, we are working on glorifying God in every thought, act, and deed. 

(1 Corinthians 10:31)

Today, I created a “Glory Tabs” reward system as a quick and easy reminder to maintain our focus on always glorifying God.

Be like Bo, it's cool to glorify God!

Lord God, I pray for every reader today. In the name of Jesus, please prompt us by your Holy Spirit to maintain a thought life that always glorifies you. Please bring a clearer understanding to each of us how critical our thought life is and for us to take every thought captive and insure the meditations of our hearts and the words of our mouth, always bring you glory!

Key Tovography

And now, dear brothers and sisters, one final thing. Fix your thoughts on what is true, and honorable, and right, and pure, and lovely, and admirable. Think about things that are excellent and worthy of praise. (Philippians 4:8, NLT)

Have you ever heard of Key Tovography? We’ve posted some information about it below.

Key Tovography: Anointed photographer who believes pictures are not made up of a camera & a subject. True photography is capturing an emotion in time & saving it for all eternity, all for His glory. (1 Corinthians 10:31)

For those of you who don’t know, I am a photographer. 

Here are a few of our shots.

In the field of photography, the challenge that blows me away the most is, people will take the two or three things they don’t like about themselves (of which, are generally unseen by everyone else) and meditate on that instead of the hundreds of positive things about them. What a disgrace to God’s creation, always look for the good! Even within yourself.

I once heard, Brother Keith Moore at Moore Life Ministries teach on Philippians 4:8 and he said something to the effect of, don’t stick to one part of that verse. Make every thought line up with every aspect of that verse….something may be true, but it may not be lovely. 

To further elaborate, if a thought is not in alignment with every point of that verse, simply do not meditate on it, do not think on it.

Please make the following confession with me, 

Father in the name of Jesus, I take every thought captive and I make every thought quality with every point of Philippians 4:8. I only meditate on and fix my thoughts on what is true, and honorable, and right, and pure, and lovely, and admirable. I only think about, meditate on, and fix my thoughts on things that are excellent and worthy of praise! Thank You for teaching us life lessons so that we may have life in excessive abundance!
