Do Something BIG!

What are you building that is BIG?  Does it have God's Blessing on it?  Is it making an Impact by blessing others?  Today I want to share the third essential element of doing something BIG,  which is, G- it Glorifies God.  What does it mean to glorify God?  Well it's as simple as 3 R's. We glorify God by- Recognizing His greatness, Reverencing or honoring Him in what we do, and Releasing all the credit to Him.  In essence our experience should be similar to the moon.  Did you know that the moon is basically a dark mass with no light?  However it does a great job of reflecting the light of the sun.  Simarly we are called to reflect the Son's light so that people see Him through what we do (Matthew 5:16).

However, sadly, many individuals make the mistake of thinking they are the star and believe it's all about them.  This same mentality and mindset is found in Genesus 11.  Here we find some people who wanted to build something BIG.  The Bible says that they wanted to build a tower that reached to heaven.  The text even says that because of their great communication (same speech), great collaboration (working together), and great creativity (using available resources) that they would have pulled it off had God himself not intervened.  You may ask, why did God intervene?  Well vs. 4 says that they were only interested in "making a name" for themselves.  They were not allowed to build something BIG because it wasn't for God's glory.   As you continue to construct whatever God has called you to do,  ask yourself, "Is this for my fame or His name?"  Make sure you do it BIG!

Peace!
