Ep. 17 - The Glory of God

Ep. 17 - The Glory Of God


To Everyone, especially artists, here is your weekly, witty inspiration to stay sane in this crazy world. Today is Sept. 15, 2024 and before you know it, we'll be bringing in a NEW YEAR... again.


First of all, let's reflect on the lives we lost already in 2024 and be grateful for their impact in our lives. Let's also consider whose lives can we touch with our own lives. We've all been blessed to see another week and favor continues to reign over us... we'll see another year.


Since age 15, I've been taking all my birthdays VERY SERIOUSLY. I used to get really hard on myself about making sure "I'm counted amongst the fold" whether that be scholastically or even when I was on the standup circuit. If I wasn't amongst the conversation, I knew I wasn't doing enough.


As I've gotten older my focus has been LESS on whether I'm counted amongst people and MORE on whether I'm counted in with the most high God. The more I've focused on my soul, the less bound and burdened I felt. The more I engage and search for God's glory on this Earthly realm... the more fun I have. The more I engage and search for God's glory on this Earthly planet... the more peace and fulfillment I find.


The Glory of God as I see it is the spark of creativity that hit us in the same way it hit the ultimate creator of all things who envisioned us into being. The Glory Of God is the birth of babies and all the unique faces that populate this Earth plane. The Glory of God is the awareness and exchange of pure love. The Glory of God is the unexplainable miracles that happen in our lives. Things that happened for our hood when we were so in over our heads we couldn't ever take credit for it. For example, the beauty of nature is one of the strongest forms of the glory of God.


So on this Sunday, whether you are stuck in traffic or betting on your favorite NFL Team, also think of the various ways YOU have witnessed or had access to the Glory of God. Think about your life and how well IT IS going simply because you are here and can participate in your interests and hobbies. Whether you make time to or not is up to you but you have the ability to enjoy them. Maybe this is your sign to enjoy them more if you have not been doing so.


Yeah there are for sure gonna be times when life sucks! When it sucks - it sucks! There's no denying life's ickiness but to deceive ourselves into behaving as if it ALWAYS SUCKS is the trap. Start small take 10-30 minutes of your day and reserve it for something FUN TO YOU! It's not about what other people want, desire or prefer. It's about YOU and want YOU ENJOY! I guarantee you it will be time well spent.


It that reserved time subconsciously what you are doing is "enjoying being alive". In that reserved time you are PRESENT in your own life. Your weekly takeaway to stay sane in this crazy world is "be present - some way, some how in your own life. By doing things or finding new things that light you up and excite you, you are connecting to the God DNA within you. You are displaying the traits you inherited from your Heavenly Father.


When you're in that zone of life... none of the silly shit matters. One of my fave quotes is by Marianne Williamson. Since we had a hilarious presidential debate last week, it's fitting to cite a sane, based person who ran for Presidential office. "Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light not our darkness that frightens us. We think 'who am I to be gorgeous, fabulous?' Well who are you not to be? There is NOTHING enlightened about shrinking... we were all born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us".


Are you making manifest of the glory of God within you? If not, why not? You are only doing yourself a disservice and the last thing the world needs are more people who missed the magic within their own life being overly focused on the lives of others.


Chase God's glory and let your light shine.
