GLORY: Look up to see the glory of God - Acts 7:55

When the members of the Sanhedrin heard this, they were furious and gnashed their teeth at him. But Stephen, full of the Holy Spirit, looked up to heaven and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing at the right hand of God. “Look,” he said, “I see heaven open and the Son of Man standing at the right hand of God.” Acts 7:54-56 NIV

Poem: "THE GLORY OF GOD" by Deborah Ann Belka.

The glory of God is everywhere,
It twinkles and shines all about.
It sparkles in the lives of those,
Who wholeheartedly seek Him out.

You can find it in all His goodness,
In the way He cares for you and me.
You can find it in His incredible blessing,
In the way He came to set us free.

So, seek Him with all your heart and mind,
Let His presence shine on your face.
Experience daily His incredible glory,
And you will find His loving amazing grace.

Praise & Prayer to see God's glory 
I praise You, Abba Father, for sending Christ Jesus, the Son of Man, to reveal the radiance of Your glory. Thank You, Lord Jesus, for showing me the glory of God's power, salvation, love, grace, mercy, compassion, and goodness when I asked You to come into my heart. Please teach me, Holy Spirit, to keep looking up and focus on Jesus, the Author, and Perfecter of my faith, when I receive threats or face animosity from cynics like Stephen. Loving Savior, I ask You to please open the eyes of my heart and continue to show me God's glory until the day I see You face to face. I pray in Your mighty name, Amen!
