2 Corinthians 10:17 . By saying this Paul intimates that even his assurance and pride are to be given to the Lord, because it is by his favor that he has them. Someone who has confidence in the power of the gospel has confidence in the God who enables it. Thus God is glorified by all godly work. A person who has not received power from God cannot glory in the Lord, because he is seeking his own glory. – Ambrosiaster . #GloryInTheLord #Glory #PrideInTheLord #Pride #Coptic #DailyReadings #CopticOrthodox #Orthodox #Corinthians
