Thank Your Helpers

Psalm 63:7 (NIV) - Because you are my help, I sing in the shadow of your wings.

I like this story from Alex Haley.

Alex Haley, the author of “Roots,” had an unusual picture hanging on his office wall. It was a picture of a turtle on top of a fence post. When asked, “Why is that there?” Alex Haley answered, “Every time I write something significant, every time I read my words and think that they are wonderful, and begin to feel proud of myself, I look at the turtle on top of the fence post and remember that he didn’t get there on his own. He had help.” Every time I am tempted to think about the things I have been able to achieve in my lifetime I am reminded of this quote and that it is not because of me but because of Christ and what He has done. (Lou Nicholes - Missionary Author).

Satan is good at using our accomplishments to tempt us with pride.

However, our accomplishments have been a group effort.

Others have helped us.

Each of us is a turtle on a fence post.

Have you thanked those who have helped you with your accomplishments?

Have you thanked God for his help?

My prayer for you today is that you will thank those who have helped you with your achievements.

Expecting God’s Best,
