Crown of Glory
On my daughters birthday this year she walked around most of the day with a crown on her head. She walked around school and home boastfully with her "crown of glory" until she laid down for sleep.
A crown of glory is a reward of victory or mark of honor given to a person or particuliar group of people that give God worshipful praise, honor and thanksgiving. In Proverbs 4:8-10 Exalt her and she shall promote thee: she shall bring thee to honour, when thou dost embrace her. She shall give to thine head an ornament of grace: a crown of glory she shall deliver to thee. Hear, O my son, and receive my sayings; and the years of thy life shall be many. This all pertains to wisdom. Wisdom is the crown of glory we all should wear.
In 1 Peter 5:3-5 tells us that Neither as being lord's over God's heritage, but being examples to his flock. And when the chief Shepard shall appear, ye shall receive a crown of glory that fadeth away not. Likewise, ye younger, submit yourselves unto the elder. Yea, all of you be subject one another, and be clothed with humility: for God resisteth the proud, and giveth grace to the humble. We are to be examples to other christians so that our "crown " won't fade away.
