Who's Glory? - 1Ki. 10:9

"The Lord your God is good indeed! He delights in you and has placed you on the throne of Israel. Because the Lord loves Israel with an eternal love, he has made you King so you can rule with justice and righteousness." 1Ki. 10:9

This HAS to be God's ultimate purpose in blessing Solomon with such amazing wealth. Somehow the Queen of Sheba sees God as being behind all that Solomon has, and gives Him the glory. I wonder if this was an act of God that caused the Queen to have this insight, or something about Solomon's character? We don't have this information, but it is something we should aspire to. That our lives, and all that we have, glorify God.

Lord, I know that have not succeeded in this. I pray that somehow you will cause my life, accomplishments and possessions will point to you.

Today's reading: 1Ki. 10-11; 2Ch. 9; Ro. 6
