In our world today, it seems we, at some point in time, will use something with the little "i" at the beginning...iPhone, iPad, iPod, iCloud and etc. When iGod was utilized for a series of Biblical sermons, being of sound but ancient mind, I was a bit offended at the use of "iGod". It seemed almost disrespectful to our Lord.
As i mulled it over, I realized that there was a message for my heart in just that simple expression, "iGod". I should always live selflessly, desiring to let God shine through me. It is not all about me!! Rather, it is all about God - bringing glory to Him. This is not an easy task to practice on a daily, hourly basis. How often the big "I" rears its head!!!
However, "...with God all things are possible", therefore I humbly acknowledge my weak, sinful self and desire His Holy Spirit to remind me diligently to let the "little i" remain in the background while the big "G" is visible to all. May Jesus shine through me, inspite of me!
"That ye may be blameless and harmless, children of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom ye shine as lights in the world." Philippians 2:15
