An intelligent way to counteract (Over)Pride. It struck me the other day how, man thinks "Woww man! you know?.. I accomplished that!! m toooo! intelligent m greater than God himself! :P and then feels proud about it". Heheh..
Well imagine, You create a robot. You program it to perform a certain set of tasks, say talk. Now does the credit of the robot talking belong to the robot?!! or You? You right? because it was You! who created and programmed the robot with the capacity to talk!!
Similarly the credit for all your accomplishments goes to YOUR Creator, God! Be thankful that he embedded you with capabilities that you can execute. Of course, God being God is more intelligent than Man, so his creation 'Man' is more intelligent than the robot and has the capability to have a will. A will/choice to do things or not. A freedom to be the reason for his destiny by choices that he himself makes.
Because of this, Man is the one who decides to make use of his talent or not, he also can take a little credit, to feel proud to the limit that is deemed healthy enough for him to feel good about himself(confidence), which he should use as a TOOL to further encourage himself to achieve more not become arrogant because arrogance always leads to downfall at some point or the other.
