1 Peter 5:5
"God is against the proud, but He gives grace to the humble"
It is very easy to overestimate the importance of our own achievements in comparison with what we owe others. in other words, reality breeds humility. So, instead of puffing out your chest and saying, "Look at me!", give credit where credit is due, starting with God. And, rest assured: There is no such thing as a self-made man. All of us are made by God..and He deserves the glory, not us.
