First Peter 2:9
"But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people belonging to God, that you may declare the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His wonderful light."

It's all about Him

Romans 11:36 For from Him and through Him and to Him are all things. To Him be the glory forever! Amen.

Our lives do not belong to us. These bodies in which we dwell are on loan from God. In fact, all things in this life are from Him. We can never repay the Lord for all He has given us.

Likewise, all things are through the Lord as well. Nothing gets past Him. Nothing surprises Him. Our God is in control of all time and space, all events and all circumstances.

Lastly, all things are purposed to point back to God. Every plant and animal, every man woman and child is made for the glory of the Lord. Even the earthly ministry of Jesus Christ pointed the way to God the Father and gave Him glory.

As disciples, we should be mindful of this in our daily lives. Everything is ultimately about God.
