Bragging on God?!?!


Deuteronomy 33:1-5

Remember the title of my Sunday School lesson is “Be Positive”; well, the first subtitle in the lesson is “Keep Bragging on God to the End.”  Bragging on God is like bragging on the sun.  Can you imagine thinking, “boy, that sun could use some encouragement”? The power of the sun lets it do its own bragging.  Now comparing God to the sun is like comparing the sun to all stars; there’s just no comparison, but I hope you get my point.  

Everything that is, is bragging on God.  He made it all and through Him all things exist.  Me, every cell of me, without saying or doing a thing, brags on God.  His goodness, His brilliance, His creativity, His power…His omnipotence all brag on Him. The sun, the moon, the entire universe brag on God.  Everything brags on God.

But if I were to brag, and trust me I’ve given this a lot of thought, I would brag on this:  Jesus loves me.  He doesn’t hold me against me.  He loves me and loves me in spite of myself.  I’ve never understood or gotten over that!!!

How would you brag on God?
