Glorifying God - But How?

My friend Brian Atkins remarked, "We are to glorify God in everything we do, but we cannot glorify God by doing everything."

Our insecurities drive us to busyness, and busyness not only causes us not to rest in Christ, but it distracts us from our special calling in Christ, it distracts us from the one thing, or those few things, to which we are especially called - and so while our lives may be busy they are flat - and others suffer because we are not contributing our special graces and gifts and callings. We need to abide in the Vine, to trust Jesus, to surrender ourselves...and to glorify God in everything we do, realizing that we can't glorify God by doing everything.
