You turn things around!This is the perpetual problem that mankind is running into. We love to take credit for our own work. We don't like to say that we are not solely responsible for thing things that we've done. President Obama caught a lot of grief for saying "you didn't build that," but he had the wrong context.
Shall the potter be considered as equal with the clay,
That what is made would say to its maker, "He did not make me";
Or what is formed say to him who formed it, "He has no understanding"?
It is true that we didn't make these things, but it was through God's help, not man's, that we are in the places we are today. God wanted us where we are, for His purposes, and to His glory. Any time we don't acknowledge that, we are stealing praise from Him.
