What a great conclusion!"It is the fruit not of our achievement but of the Holy Spirit (Galatians 5:22).It is the fruit of the gospel—knowing and feeling that we are desperate sinners and that Christ is a great and undeserved Savior. Humility ... flourishes when the gaze is elsewhere [not on us or it, but] — on the greatness of the grace of God in Christ."Amen. Soli Deo gloria."For from him and through him and to him are all things. To him be glory forever. Amen." - Rom 11:36
