Hari ini merenungi renungan dari C.H. Spurgeon - Daily and Evening, mengingatkan kembali kepada diri kita masing-masing untuk tidak sombong akan hidup ini, apa saja yang kita punya dan miliki semua semata-mata karena kasih karuniaNya, bukan karena karya tangan kita -- yang kita miliki dahulu adalah dosa.
"Oh believer, learn to reject pride, seeing that you have no ground for it. Whatsoever you are, you have nothing to make you proud. The more you have, the more you are in debt to GOD. If HE has made you anything, are you not taught it is grace which has made you to differ? You would have been a great sinner if GOD had not changed you. Therefore, do not be proud, though you have a large estate a wide dominion of grace, once you did not have a single thing to call your own except your sin and misery." - Spurgeon
Efesus 2:8-9
Sebab karena kasih karunia kamu diselamatkan oleh iman; itu bukan hasil usahamu, tetapi pemberian Allah, itu bukan hasil pekerjaanmu: jangan ada orang yang memegahkan diri.
