About a week ago, I finished reading, "It's not about me." by Max Lucado.

Some thoughts:

The part of the book that strucked me the most is when Max talk about a tour guide of a museum: What the tour guide usually do is that, the tour guide introduces the painting and the painter then steps back. But some time later, the guide would take the glory of the painter to himself. After the "ohhs" and "ahhs" of the crowd becuase of their amazement, the guide would say, "Thank you"; as if he is the painter. Then the time came where the guide would block the painting and face the crowd with a biiiiig smile, as if he is the center of the amazement of the crowd. When the director of the museum sees this he approach the guide and told him," This is not what I want you to do Joseph!". Ouch! Claiming the glory that's not mine. :) The glory belongs to God and God alone. It's not about us. We, priests of God, should step forward, introduce God and steps backward. The "Ohhhs and ahhhs" are for the Lord and not for the priests. It's not about me. It's about God.

The books is great. Calm, direct, and truthful to the title - It's not about me.

All glory and honor and praise belongs to our God!
Amen:)
