"It has been granted to you on behalf of Christ, not only to believe on him, but also to suffer for him." Philippians 1:29
We cannot know in what way we can best glorify God. It may be in hard work ; it may be in quiet waiting ; it may be in painful suffering . It is better, therefore, that we let God choose the way in which he would have us serve and honor him.
The bird glorifies God—by singing its sweet song; the flower glorifies God—by pouring out its fragrance. Mary praised Christ—by sitting at his feet, Martha—by serving him. If we simply obey his will—that will always be the best.
