As stewards of Christ, we must remain appreciative of God in order to retain Him as one working in our midst.
Things are working for us because God is working in us. Philippians 2:12, 13; Zephaniah 3:17.
Things are working around us because God is working among us.
We are blessed not because we are the best but because we are favoured – Psalm 44:3.
We are great not because we are good but because we are engraced.
We are flying not because we are smart but because we’re lifted.
Deuteronomy 32:12.
We are sufficient not because we are efficient but because of His sufficient grace – 2 Corinthians 3:5; 9:8.
We are in ministry not because we are able but because we are counted worthy. 1 Timothy 1:12.
