Paul of Tarsus wraps up his life story of gratitude, radical trust and contentment with a bold expression of praise that describes the purpose and focus of his life story—to glorify God. This is the adventure of faith and life that God has for us as well—to be conformed to the image of Christ for the sake of others. Because God is shaping us into a radical relationship of trust with Him we praise and glorify Him like Paul who wrote—“To our God and Father be glory for ever and ever. Amen.” Read Psalm 96:1-8a, Philippians 4:19-20, and John 17:1-5.
