It isn't about the bike

A couple mornings ago, I became aware that all the good stuff is by His strength, for His glory. I was thinking about Aaron Gwin, and the rider he is.  Trek certainly wants us to give the bike lots of credit.  How ever, just as it is with Ronaldho's shoes, or Jimmy Page's guitar, or Stephen Spielberg's camera, you can't give the credit to it.  You can attribute it to how well it was made, but, more so, to the power of the one using it.

Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows.

I cannot strut about, any more than Jimmy Page's guitar can say, "Oh yeah!  It's all me! I did it all by myself!"

I want to walk in humility, and give God all the glory.
