The Lord Almighty is the rightful recipient of all honor and glory, but what would it take for man to righteously receive glory? In the NIV version of Proverbs 19:11 we read...
It is not through our intellect or might that we receive glory, but in imitating the Father who pardons all our sins. The lesson here is that if we wish to receive that which is rightfully God's then we must do those things that God does. We shall never be worthy of his gifts, but he gladly endows them on those who do his will.A man's wisdom gives him patience; it is to his glory to overlook an offense.
