Why is it important to remember that we are nothing without the Lord?

Thomas R. Valletta

“Everything is given by God. All talent, creativity, ability, insight, and strength comes from him. In our own strength we can do nothing, as Ammon admitted to his brother (see Alma 26:10–12). When we seek the praise of man more than the praise of God, it will become easy to fall” (Ashton, “Neither Boast of Faith Nor Mighty Works,” 67).
