Well, what have you or I of which to boast?
What have we that we did not gain, receive?
Be pleased with any good you’ve done, but most
of all be thankful for enabling given
and for forgiveness for things badly done
– and let us boast we know the gracious One!
Pride does not think it needs any advice,
assistance – easily it slips and falls.
It thinks its skill and wisdom will suffice,
but one who sees their need in time, and calls
for help and listens in humility
to wise suggestions shows maturity.
Jeremiah 9:23,24
