Romans 11:33-36 (NRSV)
God's riches, wisdom, and knowledge

O the depth of the riches and wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable are his judgments and how inscrutable his ways!
"For who has known the mind of the Lord?
Or who has been his counselor?"
"Or who has given a gift to him,
to receive a gift in return?"

For from him and through him and to him are all things. To him be the glory forever. Amen.

Reflection
It's all about God! Sometimes we get confused in life and think it's all about us, but it's not, it's all about God! Once we realize this, our call becomes clearer. We are here as God's children, and as children, we praise the God that created us, sustains us, calls us and gifts us with what we need for life. Once we give up on the thought that it's about us we can give that life away and God will start anew with us. It's all about God! And that's the way it is the best and most wonderful and most awesome! Thanks be to God!

Prayer
Lord, some days, I need to just get over myself, get out of the way and let you take over. It's not about me...it's all about you. I give you all thanks, glory, and honor...today...tomorrow...and forever. --- Amen
