The “Glory of God” means the “Weight of God”. The Hebrew word Kavod which is translated as “Glory” means Weight.

As we eat Christ and grow into Christ we also become heavy. This weight pleases God because it is the growth and the increase of Christ in the Earth!

Most Christians are very light.

22 Now he who received seed among the thorns is he who hears the word, and the cares of this world and the deceitfulness of riches choke the word, and he becomes unfruitful. 23 But he who received seed on the good ground is he who hears the word and understands it, who indeed bears fruit and produces: some a hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty.”
” (Matthew 13:22–23, NKJV)

We should all be heavy!
