Reflections

The Tabernacle of Moses was built by human hands according to divine instructions. God wanted man to participate in the making of the tabernacle. In the same way, we are responsible also to prepare ourselves. Not according to human instructions but divine. We are participants in preparing the vessels of glory.

God wants to prepare us for glory. But we have to cooperate with God. Work hand in hand with God. We have our part in preparing for God’s glory. 2 Tim 2:20 - 21 (NIV) 20In a large house there are articles not only of gold and silver, but also of wood and clay; some are for noble purposes and some for ignoble. 21If a man cleanses himself from the latter, he will be an instrument for noble purposes, made holy, useful to the Master and prepared to do any good work.

Hence, we should clear out things from our lives that are ignoble. Are we filling our lives with things that are not eternal? Are we filling our lives with everything else but the glory of God! Social media, Xbox, money, accomplishments? All but the glory of God? Let's pursue what truly matters.
