You think you should get that job because you are smart?
You think you should be married because you are beautiful?
You think you should be respected because you are old?
You think you should have a standing ovation because you are talented?
You think your name should be on the billboards because of your skills?
You think you should be praised because of your creativity?
Oh yes! You should be…
Not because you are all what you think
But because of His ability in you
So then it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of God that sheweth mercy. (Rom 9:16)
The race is not for the swift, nor the battle for the strong
It’s Grace that makes us Great
Amen… Great words!..

This is exact. Often we think we are the authors of our blessings because we have worked hard. It’s always God’s grace.
