Individually is it our voice, our beauty, some athletic ability, great wealth, intelligence, maybe the family name? As a nation, why do peoples around the world look at us with great desire?
The reason should be that everyone sees in us a great and mighty God who is close to us, not some personal flamboyancy, flare or ability. They should see How Great Is Our God! Get out of the way and let Him shine!
Deuteronomy 4:4-8 ESV
But you who held fast to the Lord your God are all alive today. See, I have taught you statutes and rules, as the Lord my God commanded me, that you should do them in the land that you are entering to take possession of it. Keep them and do them, for that will be your wisdom and your understanding in the sight of the peoples, who, when they hear all these statutes, will say, "Surely this great nation is a wise and understanding people." For what great nation is there that has a god so near to it as the Lord our God is to us, whenever we call upon him? And what great nation is there, that has statutes and rules so righteous as all this law that I set before you today?
