Who Gets the Glory

In today's Christian church, there are many people who take all the credit for something God has done. We see in Acts 14 there was a crippled man from birth, who looked at Paul because he wanted to be healed. Verse 11 states: Now when the people saw what Paul had done, they raised their voices, saying in the Lycaonian [language], "The gods have come down to us in the likeness of men!" and in verse 15, Paul's response: "Men, why are you doing these things?” Paul knew that it was the power of God that healed the crippled man, not his power. How can we remember to give the credit to God? Have you ever taken the glory from God?
