Sometimes our faith is tested more by prosperity than by adversity. Why? Because in times of plenty, we are tempted to stick out our chests and say, " I did that." But nothing could be further from the truth. All of our blessings start and end with God; whatever "it" is, He did it. And He deserves the credit.
Who are the greatest among us? Are they the proud and the powerful? Hardly. The greatest among us are the humble servants who care less for their own glory and more for God's glory. If we seek greatness in God's eyes, we must forever praise His good works, not our own.
Reflect On This:
Nothing sets a person so much out of the devil's reach as humility. -Jonathan Edwards
