Thought Adjuster: “How does one live a life that is a [[revelation]] to the [[glory]] of [[the Father]]? It would make sense to first [[clarify]] what we mean by the [[expression]] ‘to the glory of the Father’. The [[essence]] of the Father is [[love]] and when this love is [[manifested]] by the [[personality of God]] it turns into [[goodness]]. Therefore, the glory of God is the triumph of goodness in all [[creation]]. To live for the glory of the Father is nothing but following His will in such a way that you [[become]] an agent of His goodness. In this way, others would be able to [[recognize]] in you and through your [[actions]], the divine goodness that [[inspires]] you and they would [[discover]] the Father through you.
“You live a life of revelation of God when in all situations you attempt to behave as you [[imagine]] the Father would behave. Man can pretend to be better in some situations and often succumbs in the face of difficulties and [[challenges]]. But when a person puts her [[strength]] on the Father and [[decides]] to [[emulate]] God, she will find the strength to overcome her [[Animal nature|material nature]] and can truly begin to act divinely within her [[finite]]ness.
“This is the [[reason]] why placing your [[trust]] in your physical strength or your [[mental]] capacity — things that are solely material — can be counter productive in situations where your strength is not enough or your [[intelligence]] can’t come up with solutions. Those who put their trust in their Father can [[transcend]] their limitations and accept by [[faith]] that, even those things that occur in the present and have no apparent solution, happen because somehow they will all result in a greater [[good]] for all involved. These [[mortals]] filled with faith can truly see a [[universe]] that works with a [[purpose]] and that [[obeys]] the laws of [[love]]. Sometimes, through faith, you can [[anticipate]] the [[future]] solution for the [[problems]] of the [[present]].
===Closing===
“This is why a true and [[dynamic]] faith is the cause of a [[peace]] that is beyond all [[understanding]], because those who learn to [[accept]] the implicit goodness that permeates all creation would know that in the end all is good and all happens for the greater [[glory]] of [[the Father]].”
