Hello, everybody, and thank you for joining us right here on Pastor Rick's Daily Hope.

Well, today, Rick's going to bring his series called Connecting with God, the Lord's Prayer, to a close.

In this series, Rick has shown us what it means to be spiritually connected to God and each other through the power of God's

love and God's word. And now here's the final part of a message called the Prayer of

Fulfillment. So how do I do this? How do I live for the glory of God? Well, I could give you

a hundred ways to live for the glory of God. Let me just could give you a hundred ways to live for the glory of God.

Let me just give you four real quick. Write these down. Number one, first way to live for the

glory of God is show love to everybody. Show love to everybody. Did you know that every time

you show love, it gives glory to God?

Because God is love, it shows what God is like. And remember, glory is revealing what God is really like.

God says, I am loving. I am compassionate. And I want you to be like me.

I want you to develop my character.

And you're never going to be God.

You're never going to be a little teeny tiny God.

Okay.

But God says, I want you to become godly.

I want you to develop my character like father, like son, like father like daughter.

I want you to learn to love people the way I love people. God is love.

And he says, every time you do that, it shows my glory. And I want you to love like me.

And of course, one of the ways you do that is just by accepting people. Now, a lot of people say, but I don't like all the things that they do.

Well, just because you don't like what they do doesn't mean you can accept them.

Do you understand the difference between acceptance and approval?
