It Was All Me?...no, HIM!

*Has someone ever tried to take credit for what you've done? I know I have and how do you think He feels?

- We all want credit for the things we do, so does He.
- When He does something amazing and great, He wants all of us to know it was Him.
- One of the greatest things God has ever done is provide us with salvation from our sins. Through Him we were brought to life. Through Him our sinful hearts were transformed into hearts that desire and want to be more like Him. In Him we were made pure, holy, and blameless in His beautiful, wonderful, everlasting sight.

We had NOTHING to do with it, it was ALL Him!

"I mean that You have been saved by grace through believing You did not save yourselves; it was a gift of your own efforts, so you cannot brag about it." - Ephesians 2:8-9

- It is only through God's grace that we're saved. Your salvation is not dependent on who you are or what you've done -- but only on who He is and what He's done!

"But now in Christ Jesus, you who were far away from God are brought near through the blood of Christ's death." -Ephesians 3:13

"God gave that grace to us freely, in Christ, the One He loves." - Ephesians 1:6b
