We can be quick to credit our successes to our own hard work, forgetting that God is the one who enables us to work at all. God actively sustains the world, but in our sinfulness, we are too nearsighted to see His hand behind everything around us. This season of Lent, let us move towards wisdom, to acknowledge the superiority of God’s words to our own and to rightly credit Him for all of our victories.
