Don’t ever be like the woodpecker who while pecking away on a pine tree was stunned by a bolt of lightening that struck the tree and split it from top to bottom.  Hardly able to believe his eyes, the woodpecker backed off and looked at the damage for a few moments.  Then he flew away and came back leading nine other woodpeckers.  With a great deal of swagger he said, “There it is, gentlemen, right over there.”

When we start to take the credit for what God does, He stops doing it!

Humility
