To God Goes The Glory

I have been told I am strong, that my love is deep for others, and that I am a blessing. For the longest time I could not see these qualities in myself. That is because they are not my qualities. I am fearful, weak, and a sinner. Who isn’t? There is truth in that. If I were to take credit for any of these characteristics, I would be stealing glory. When I am struggling and yet still strong enough to help others, that is Christ in me. When I bring blessings into someone’s life, that is not me, that is Christ through me. My love for others is enhanced by Christ’s love. You see, God actively works in this world through His followers. He will use the willing to inspire and provoke His love unto others. I am giving credit where credit is due. That credit belongs to Jesus Christ my Lord, Saviour, Healer, and most of all my friend.
