Work hard and give all the credit to God!

This is the verse of the day:

"work out your own salvation with fear and trembling, for it is God who works in you, both to will and to work for his good pleasure." - Philippians 2:12-13

God does not honor passivity. Rather, we are to "work" out our own salvation, or in other words "fight the good fight of faith" (1 Timothy 6:12). At the moment when you see victory over sin or freedom from the cares of this world or moral excellence in your life, do not make it all in vain by taking the credit and glory for yourself. It is God who works in you! It is for His good pleasure!

May God receive all the credit and glory and praise for any good thing that comes from my life!
