Where Is My Honor?

Many books have been written about our relationship with God. Some of them give us distorted images of ourselves, life as a whole, or how our relationship ought to be with God. This book is an exception to the rule. In writing this book, my goal was not to point out our flaws and God’s disdain for us. On the contrary, it was to show how, in and of ourselves, we disappoint God continuously, like the children of Israel, and that God has made a way for us to honor him through Christ Jesus. I therefore had six goals in mind each time I sat to pen this book, under the guidance of the Holy Spirit. First and foremost, Where Is My Honor? is intended to help us reflect on how we are personally honoring God in our lives and not necessarily looking at how others are honoring him. Second, it is intended to be a “mirror” through which we see the “dirt” in our lives. Third, it is a tool to help us do a reality check in terms of our relationship with God. Do we truly love him? Are we honoring him in ways that he deserves? If he were to ask us “Where is my honor?” what would we say to him? In other words, this masterpiece should help us to stop sleepwalking spiritually. Fourth, this book is provocative to us. After recognizing and acknowledging the dirt we see through this mirror, it calls on us to seek the help of the Holy Spirit to remove the dirt. Fifth, this book helps us to see how fine (beautiful or handsome) we are after we have been cleansed by the blood of the lamb. Finally, Where Is My Honor? helps us see, understand, and fully appreciate how good, big, and truly awesome God is.
