 Today's MP3 You can't run the world, nor are you expected to be all-powerful. You may think you can. But when you face your own grave or your own guilt,  your power will not do the trick.
The Bible says "Thine is the kingdom, and the power and the glory forever." (Matthew 6:13).
A trio of peaks. Admire them, applaud them, but don't climb them. You weren't made to run a kingdom, or to be all-powerful. And you certainly can't handle all the glory. Mount Applause is the most seductive of the three peaks. More than one person has stood at the top and shouted, "Mine is the glory!"—only to lose their balance and fall.
As you confess that God is in charge, you admit you aren't. As you proclaim that God has power, you admit you don't. And as you give God all the applause, there is none left to dizzy your brain!
from The Great House of God
