Su ques\u00adta base, ecco un ten\u00adta\u00adtivo di defi\u00adni\u00adre la glo\u00adria di Dio in tre passi:<\/p>\n
\n\tLa glo\u00adria di Dio esprime la sua mas\u00adsi\u00adma import\u00adan\u00adza. La paro\u00adla ebraica per glo\u00adria, kabod, signi\u00adfi\u00adca pesan\u00adtez\u00adza, peso. La glo\u00adria di Dio esprime che Dio stes\u00adso ha il mas\u00adsi\u00admo peso e la mas\u00adsi\u00adma import\u00adan\u00adza. Nien\u00adte dov\u00adreb\u00adbe esse\u00adre importan\u00adte per noi quan\u00adto Lui. Se qual\u00adco\u00adsa nella nos\u00adt\u00adra vita \u00e8 pi\u00f9 importan\u00adte di Dio, neg\u00adhi\u00adamo la sua glo\u00adria. Un\u2019al\u00adta\u00adle\u00adna si incli\u00adna quan\u00addo da un lato c\u2019\u00e8 un ogget\u00adto pi\u00f9 pesan\u00adte di quello dal\u00adl\u2019al\u00adt\u00adro. Da un lato dico che mi fido di Dio e lo amo. Dal\u00adl\u2019al\u00adt\u00adro lato, sono ava\u00adro e imbro\u00adglio sul\u00adle tas\u00adse. La bilan\u00adcia si incli\u00adna: non \u00e8 Dio ad ave\u00adre il peso mag\u00adgio\u00adre, ma il den\u00ada\u00adro. Oppu\u00adre: per\u00adch\u00e9 non otten\u00adgo il rico\u00adno\u00adsci\u00admen\u00adto che desi\u00adde\u00adro, sono dis\u00adtrut\u00adto. Ques\u00adto \u00e8 un seg\u00adno che le per\u00adso\u00adne e le loro voci han\u00adno pi\u00f9 peso di ci\u00f2 che Dio pen\u00adsa di me. Dio \u00e8 pre\u00adsen\u00adte nella nos\u00adt\u00adra vita in tut\u00adta la sua glo\u00adria solo quan\u00addo fa pen\u00adde\u00adre l\u2019al\u00adta\u00adle\u00adna dal\u00adla sua par\u00adte con il suo peso.
\n\tLa glo\u00adria di Dio sta per la sua bel\u00adlez\u00adza asso\u00adlu\u00adta. La bel\u00adlez\u00adza \u00e8 esis\u00adten\u00adzi\u00adal\u00admen\u00adte importan\u00adte. Spen\u00addia\u00admo mol\u00adto den\u00ada\u00adro per\u00adch\u00e9 voglia\u00admo esse\u00adre bel\u00adle. Sia\u00admo att\u00adrat\u00adti dal\u00adle per\u00adso\u00adne bel\u00adle. Andia\u00admo in pos\u00adti bel\u00adlis\u00adsi\u00admi per fest\u00adeg\u00adgia\u00adre.

\nCome fac\u00adcia\u00admo a sape\u00adre che sia\u00admo sta\u00adti cat\u00adtu\u00adra\u00adti dal\u00adla glo\u00adria di Dio? Eze\u00adchi\u00ade\u00adle d\u00e0 la ris\u00adpos\u00adta: \u00ab[\u2026] e quan\u00addo l\u2019eb\u00adbi vis\u00adta (= la glo\u00adria di Dio), cad\u00addi sul\u00adla mia fac\u00adcia e sen\u00adtii uno che par\u00adla\u00adva\u00bb (Eze\u00adchi\u00ade\u00adle 1:28 ELB<\/span>).

Quan\u00addo Pie\u00adtro intra\u00advi\u00adde la glo\u00adria di Dio, dis\u00adse: \u00abSigno\u00adre, non preoc\u00adcu\u00adp\u00adar\u00adti pi\u00f9 di me: sono un pec\u00adca\u00adto\u00adre trop\u00adpo gran\u00adde per sta\u00adre con te\u00bb (Luca 5:8 NLB<\/span>).
