When Moses asked the Lord to show him His glory, the Lord let all His goodness pass in front of Moses. (See Exodus 33:18-19). So according to this scripture, God's glory is His goodness. When we look around, we can see beautiful things in creation. He has given us evidence of His goodness. This is just one facet of His glory, there are many more. Creation cost Him nothing to give us, and took only 6 days. But when He gave us Jesus, it cost Him His son. That's how good He is. When the Father gave us Jesus to be the sacrifice for our sins, He gave everything so that we could be reconciled to Him. That's how much He wanted to be near us.
