“That the name of our Lord Jesus Christ may be glorified in you, and ye in him, according to the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ.“
— 2 Thessalonians 1:12 KJV
Reflection on Today's Verse
You’re not here to just get by, check boxes, or build a resume. You’re here so that Christ can shine through you like light through stained glass. And the most beautiful part? You’re not just reflecting His glory. You’re caught up in it. Sharing it. Wrapped in it.
It’s like God’s grace is both the engine and the destination. He fuels your life with grace so that Jesus is glorified in your story—and then flips it, glorifying you in His. Not because you earned it. Because grace doesn’t invoice. It just gives.
So when you’re wondering if what you’re doing matters, remember this: Every act of faith, every quiet obedience, every time you forgive, every moment you keep trusting when it’d be easier to walk away—it all reflects Him. And He reflects you back in glory. That’s the divine exchange.
Personal Prayer
Lord Jesus, let Your name be glorified in me today. In what I say, in how I respond, in who I choose to become. Let Your grace run the show—not my ego, not my fear. Remind me that it’s not about striving, but shining—with You, through You, for You.
I don’t want to live for applause or approval. I want to live for Your glory. And if in Your kindness, You glorify me in return—may it only point right back to You. Amen.
