Honor: to lift up, to elevate, to treat as uncommon.

Honor is not just something we do, it is who we are. It loves unconditionally and gives without any return. It applauds and stands at attention. It puts our needs behind others; it speaks to the king/queen in someone when they are acting the fool. Michelangelo was once noted as saying that when he looked at a rock he didn't see the rock but the sculpture within it. Honor recognizes and respects the greatness in those around us. God wants us to honor Him. We do this by treating His house and those around us as uncommon and by elevating His desires above our own.
