How wonderful are your ways O Lord

"God chose things despised by the world, things counted as nothing at all, and used them to bring to nothing what the world considers important.  As a result, no one can ever boast in the presence of God."
(1 Corinthians 1:28-29 NLT)

“My grace is all you need. My power works best in weakness.” So now I am glad to boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ can work through me.
(2 Corinthians 12:9 NLT)

Be Doers of the Word

Hebrews 4:12
For the word of God is living and active, able to discern reflections and thoughts of the heart.

"For if you listen to the word and don’t obey, it is like glancing at your face in a mirror.  You see yourself, walk away, and forget what you look like."  (James 1:23-24 NLT)

From God and for Him are all things

Romans 11:33
"Oh, the depth of the riches and wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable are his judgments and how inscrutable his ways!"

God is the First Cause of everything.
