i have a really hard time internalizing the fact that it's only God that allows/enables me to do certain things... i say it all the time... "only God" but i've been the one doing it all this time i never really think about the fact that it literally is only God that works in me to succeed at anything good... all good things come from Him, and me being a sinful man can only produce evil, so in essence, it truly IS only God that bring us to do acts of kindness, bring glory to His name, excel at whatever craft we set our hands to do. and when people say you did a good job.... yes, you did a good job of putting faith in the Father, and then working the problem out... as a child, the thought never comes to mind... with our parents growing us up in a certain way, we form habits, carry on tendencies, follow actions, but never truly consider why we do what we do, and what our true nature is, but when it boils down to the nitty gritty... if it wasn't for God....
Funny,
