Today's Verse Reflection
In moments of success, this verse can be a grounding force, a reminder that our achievements should lead us to praise and thanksgiving rather than pride. In failure, it offers comfort, reminding us that our value is not based on our performance but on God’s love and grace towards us.

It’s a call to live out our faith with a sense of responsibility and humility, always aware of the source of our strength and the purpose of our service.
