Let God take the glory.

Acts 2:47 praising God and enjoying the favor of all the people. And the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved.

In the world today majority somehow become the right thing. Facebook friends and twitter followers describe a personality more than the real facts.  We like numbers and numbers rule the game. Youtube subscribers and blog readership takes the driving seat. We like to claim our numbers cause it tell about me and my work.

In the first Century Church the number part was left with God. After the first 3000 in Acts we dont find a number of the Church members anywhere as such. It has to be understood that we can do our part and give our best. But it is God who adds to the number and gives growth. It doesn’t mean that we don’t have to do our part. We must do what has been entrusted us. Whether it be the lesson at school, Project in college, File in the office, Work at home, Preaching/teaching  assignment or singing for God. We must do our part.

The Simple fact is that these numbers should not get to our head. We must let God take the glory. The marks that we score, the promotion that we get, the position that we hold and the money that we have comes from God and God alone. We are Just receiving it in His grace. Let God take the glory.
