NOT OF MY DOING
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The race is not to the swift or the battle to the
strong, nor does food come to the wise or wealth to
the brilliant or favor to the learned; but time and
chance happen to them all.
(ECCLESIASTES 9:)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
O, how I would love to claim responsibility for the opportunities I have either made or taken advantage of. This would give me a sense of great accomplishment and power. But Lord, I know my good fortune is often the result of time and chance and Your goodness. Iam the recipient of Your power - blessings shape my days.
When opportunity knocks, grant me the perspective and the vision to see past my ego so that I understand my role was merely to turn the knob, open the door, and welcome it in. You made it, delivered it, and allowed me to recognize it.
