...the end all in life is to glorify God.

Everything we do should be done for the glory of God...
and this is how I will live.
As I teach,
As I mentor,
As I live with others,
As I talk,
As I laugh,
As I interact with my little Tan Tag kids,
As I worship,
As I read,
As I work.
Everything I do should be done for the glory of God.
