Christians should respond to God's glory with humility and gratitude, recognizing that all glory belongs to Him.
Believers are called to respond to God's glory by casting all their crowns at His feet, as depicted in the imagery of Psalm 115:1, which states that glory should be given to God alone. Our response should be one of recognition that our salvation and every good thing we do is a result of His grace. When Mary poured the costly ointment on Jesus, she exemplified the Christian response of sacrificial love and gratitude, acknowledging that her worth and hope were solely in Him. This humility is reflected in 2 Corinthians 10:17, which professes that if anyone boasts, let him boast in the Lord, reminding us that our actions and responses are ultimately to glorify Him.
