“Thus says the Lord: “Let not the wise man boast in his wisdom, let not the mighty man boast in his might, let not the rich man boast in his riches, but let him who boasts boast in this, that he understands and knows me, that I am the Lord who practices steadfast love, justice, and righteousness in the earth. For in these things I delight, declares the Lord.”” – Jeremiah 9:23-24 (ESV)
Whatever our accomplishments, achievements or gains, it’s important to place glory for those Blessings firmly where they belong; in the hands of our Heavenly Father. True wisdom doesn’t come from the reliance on our own strengths or abilities, but instead in the knowledge that all good gifts flow directly from God (James 1:17).
Hi, I’m Phil Malmstrom, a.k.a. Phather Phil. I’m self-employed, father of two wonderful young men, an ordained minister who delights in spreading Jesus’ Message of Hope and Love, a science-fiction junkie, an aspiring photographer and above all that one of God’s Children who rejoices in His Blessings each day. 
Every good and perfect gift comes from above. Every blessing flows from His throne. And all praise and glory belong to God alone.
Great encouragement, Phil!
Everything good comes from God alone, not from our own strength and accomplishments. Great encouragement Phil.
Without God we don’t get any gifts but because of Him He gives us perfect gifts.
