1 Cor 2:31 (back blogging)

Therefore, as it is written: "Let him who boasts boast in the Lord."

These first 2 chapters talked a lot about boasting and arguing as a result of disagreeing with others boasting, and this verse really made me think about my life and how I feel like I often think of myself too highly. I think about how good I've gotten at doing something or how great things have worked out for me, and instead of continuing to rely on God and "boast" about His work in my life I start patting myself on the back for putting in the "hard work". All those previous verses talked about how God chose to use the foolish, weak and lowly things to show the world His strength, and it reminded me that I seem to have forgotten about where I came from and where I started from and essentially forgot about how "desperate" I was for His help. I pray that I may not forget all the Christ has done and that I may truly thank Him and tell others about how He has carried me through to where I am now.
