Sunday Scripture: 2 Corinthians 3:5

Sunday November 1, 2009

2 Corinthians 3:5 - "It is not that we think we are qualified to do anything on our own. Our qualification comes from God."" (NLT)

Trust in God. Sometimes it's hard, because our nature takes over, and we tend to want to do things on our own. It is no different than when we pushed our parents aside for the first time to do something on our own. We do it to God all the time. Yet, we cannot think that our successes are our own. God created us. He provides us with our abilities. He gives us lessons in our failures. He shares joy in our successes. We can do nothing without Him.
