Exodus 34,35,36

36:2 "Then Moses called Bezalel and Oholiab and every skillful person in whom the Lord had put skill, everyone whoe heart stirred him, to come to the work to perform it."

Here we see a practical example of James 1:17. Even skills and talents are from God.

I like to mess around in Photoshop fixing (or sometimes doctoring) images. I take great pleasure in it, and I'm good at it. I take pride in what I can do. I don't think that I attibute that talent to God enough however. I need to remember that every good thing given and every perfect gift is from God.

Lord, help me to remember You are the source of all things good. Help me to not take pride in myself, but in You. You are the only one deserving of praise.
