Approaching GodGenesis 1:1, 26, 31
1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.
26 Then God said, “Let Us make man in Our image, according to
Our likeness; and let them rule over the fish of the sea and over
the birds of the sky and over the cattle and over all the earth,
and over every creep-ing thing that creeps on the earth.”
31 God saw all that He had made, and behold, it was very good.
And there was evening and there was morning, the sixth day.

Glorifying GodDaniel 4:34-37
God is Surpremely Sovereign34 “But at the end of that period, I,
Nebuchadnezzar, raised my eyes
toward heaven and my reason returned to me, and I blessed the
Most High and praised and honored Him who lives forever;
For His dominion is an everlasting dominion,And His kingdom
endures from generation to generation.35 “All the inhabitants of
the earth are accounted as nothing,But He does according to His
will in the host of heavenAnd among the inhabitants of earth;And no
one can ward off His handOr say to Him, ‘What have You done?’
36 At that time my reason returned to me. And my majesty and
splen-dor were restored to me for the glory of my kingdom, and my
coun-selors and my nobles began seeking me out; so I was
reestablished in my sovereignty, and surpassing greatness was added
to me. 37 Now I, Nebuchadnezzar, praise, exalt and honor the King
of heaven, for all His works are true and His ways just, and He is
able to humble those who walk in pride.”
~Prayer of Praise and Thanksgiving~
