Success and prosperity can blind us. We erroneously think we earned it and it’s ours. But the truth is that it’s all God’s. The Bible asks us, “What are you so puffed up about? What do you have that God hasn’t given you? And if all you have is from God, why act as though you have accomplished something on your own?” (1 Cor. 4:7 TLB). I remember this every time I give a tithe or an offering by praying a simple prayer: Lord, this is yours—all of it is yours. Thank you.
