There is no man that does not sin.—2 Chron. 6:36. To be in the proper position to reflect God’s glory, we must honestly recognize our sinful nature. We need to acknowledge our sinful inclinations and work to control them so that we can progress to the point of truly glorifying God. As worshippers of Jehovah, we must continually make a self-examination to determine whether we are measuring up to his righteous standards. (Prov. 28:18; 1 Cor. 10:12) Whatever the nature of our sinful tendencies, we must keep on curbing them so that we can reflect God’s glory. Jesus was the only human who ever lived and died without failing to please God and reflect His glory. Although we are not perfect as Jesus was, we can and should strive to follow his example. (1 Pet. 2:21) Jehovah weighs the effort we put forth along with the progress we make, and he blesses our earnest endeavor to bring him glory.
