Psalm 115:1 ” Not to us, O Lord, not to us but to Your Name be the glory, because of Your love and faithfulness.”

The ultimate trust of God is shown in who we rely on. Or when something wonderful happens in our life, who we give credit to. The Psalmist is very clear here…we are not to get the glory in anything that happens in our life….for it is God Who is directing and causing it. The ultimate trust in God is when we glorify Him, not ourselves, and when faith overrides selfish ambitions. We are to ascribe to the Lord the glory due His Name, Psalm 96:8 tells us…in other words, all glory rightfully belongs to God, not us. So ultimately, who we place our trust in will determine who receives this glory…ourselves or God.
