Theme of the Month: The Secret message of salt

“By the grace of God I am what I am”. (I Cor. 15:10).
We take pride in ourselves. Yet all these things will soon pass away. Talents and gifts will soon pass away. We are nothing before God. In the Bible we read that the holy God calls our righteousness ‘filthy rags’. Such is our condition before God! After our conversion we are made into a peculiar treasure. But it requires meekness in us to understand our heavenly calling. Paul says in I Corinthians 15:10: ‘the grace of God which was with me.’ He was a man of God whom the Lord used so mightily. Judging by his family, knowledge and education, he was a highly qualified man of the world. It was afterwards that he became an Apostle. Yet he says, ‘By the grace of God I am what I am”.
When we are born again, God gives each one of us some gift or other. But we should not feel proud of it. Whatever we receive from God we transmit to the people around us, and do so because of His grace. There is no reason why we should be proud of the talents given to us by God to be spent for others.
God will use us only when we are humble and meek, thankful to God everyday for His grace. By humility alone can one be qualified for God’s kingdom and not by bible knowledge or educational qualification. Please see Matt 5:5, ‘Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.” Any believer can obtain this inheritance. Thank God, our inheritance does not depend upon our education or any such thing.
