Significance: What is it really?

"Being significant is not the same as looking significant.  Sometimes the significance of what a person contributes doesn't get noticed until the contribution ceases."                   ~ John Ortberg



"No great cathedrals will ever be built again, because so few people are willing to sacrifice to that degree." ~Anonymous

I am quite sure that if you take the few minutes to watch this clip you will not be disappointed, but instead quite encouraged.


"At times my invisibility has felt like an affliction to me, but it is not a disease that is erasing my life.  It is the cure for the disease of self-centeredness.  It is the antidote to my own pride."                     ~ speaker in this clip


If I do it right, I shouldn't be seen.  If I do it well, I should never be seen.  But God sees.

May it be nothing about me.  May it be all about Him.

May He alone be seen!

John 3:30 (NLT) "He must become greater and greater, and I must become less and less."

  1. Thanks for sharing this today. I often felt/feel this way, and I needed the reminder today that I dont do what I do to be noticed, I do it for Him. Sometimes it seems hard to remember that.
    I hope you have a very blessed day today!

  3. Everytime I see this video...I am brought to tears of great humbleness as the awe of God becomes greater than my own fleshly desire to be recognized. Thank you for posting this!!!
