Dr. Joe Henry Hankins used to say to me, “Sonny boy, none of of us are as dedicated as we think we are.” How very true I’ve found this to be in my own life. As Eliphaz said to Job, “Behold, thou hast instructed many, and hast strengthened the weak hands. Thy words have upholden him that was falling, and hast strengthened the feeble knees. But now it is come upon thee, and thou faintest; it toucheth thee, and thou art troubled.”
Darling David assures us, “God knoweth our frame; He remembereth we are dust.” He knows what we are made of, even though we are prone to forget it. We are not Herculean; we are human! God is not surprised at our frailties; it is we who are shocked to see and admit to our fragilities. We are prone to think of ourselves more highly than we ought. Also, we’re likely to think this of others when observing those whom we deem great men and women of God. Let us remember, all of us at our very best are but dust. Let not dust glory in dust.
