My Glory Comes from Knowing Him (from previous blog)

So I was reading this morning and I came across something interesting. It was really random but here it is: In the book, Chrono is a kid who is really good at a sport similar to baseball and this is a quote about him. "Clearly, Chrono was the most glorious thing the children had ever seen on Mars, and any glory they themselves had came from their association with him. They would do anything to make his glory grow." 

So my thought was, this is exactly the way we should be thinking of God. We should want nothing more than to make His glory grow. The only meaning we have ourselves is purely from our association with Him, when we are so close to Him that others can see His glory through us. Well, that pretty much sums up my random thought of the day.
