"神はその栄光が見られることだけでなく、それが喜ばれることによっても栄光を受ける"
Simplified meaning
When people see something amazing or wonderful, it's not enough just to notice it. True appreciation comes when they also feel happiness or joy because of it. Think about a beautiful sunset. If you just look at it and say, "That's nice," that's one thing. But if you also feel moved or filled with wonder, that experience becomes much deeper.
Similarly, if you believe in something greater than yourself, like God, it's not enough just to recognize that greatness. The real value comes when you feel joy and celebrate it. For example, attending a religious service isn't just about being present; it's about participating, singing, and feeling grateful.
In life, it's important not only to acknowledge the good things but also to take a moment to truly enjoy them. This way, you make the experience meaningful and fulfilling. So, rather than just seeing something good, allow yourself to feel and express gratitude and happiness.
