"Seeking credit robs us of Christ and that is why the free gift of God's grace gives us Christ our eternal life.”

1 Corinthians 1:29 that no flesh should boast before God.

1 Corinthians 3:21 Therefore let no one boast in men. For all things are yours.

1 Corinthians 4:7 For who makes you different? And what do you have that you didn't receive? But if you did receive it, why do you boast as if you had not received it?

Ephesians 2:9 not of works, that no one would boast.

2 Timothy 1:9 who saved us and called us with a holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given to us in Christ Jesus before times eternal.

Romans 12:3 For I say, through the grace that was given me, to every man who is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think reasonably, as God has apportioned to each person a measure of faith.

Facts: the brain has been called a “random thought generator.” The average brain is believed to generate up to 50,000 thoughts per day. Every minute, 750-1,000 milliliters of blood flows through the brain. This is enough to fill a bottle of wine or liter bottle of soda. Your brain can process an image that your eyes have seen for as little as 13 milliseconds — less time than it takes for you to blink. The popular myth that we use only 10% of our brains is flat-out wrong. Brain scans clearly show that we use most of our brain most of the time, even when we’re sleeping. You may have heard that we have more brain cells than there are stars in the Milky Way, but this is not true. Best-guess estimates are that we have 86 billion neurons while there are 200-400 billion stars in the Milky Way. It’s often said that there are 10,000 miles of blood vessels in the brain when, actually, that number is closer to 400 miles. Still, a substantial amount!
