Humble confidence

Isn’t it interesting that God wisely designed the human body so that we can neither pat our own back, nor kick ourselves, too easily?

Lord, help us be humble as we successfully rule this day, confident in the knowledge that You can open doors for us that no man can shut. And if a door shuts or will not open, let us not be too hard on ourselves understanding that Your ways are not our ways but all things work for the good of those who love You.
