For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— not by works, so that no one can boast. For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do. Ephesians 2: 8-10
Warning against the subtly of arrogance and boasting. "I know I'm not perfect, but my way of seeing things is somewhat better than those around me."
"My way of understanding faith; of expressing worship; my views about the diversity of human experience; my taste; my humour; my good works...." (you know).
To love is to know that it is all from Christ. "The more I know, the more I know I don't know. " Let us look to Christ who knows all.
PRAYER: With my eyes fix on you so there is no occasion to slip them back to myself.
