favor

Psalm 44
3 They did not conquer the land with their swords;

     it was not their own strength that gave them victory.

It was by Your mighty power that they succeeded;

     it was because You favored them & smiled on them.


Only by Your power can we push back our enemies;

     only in Your name can we trample our foes.

6 I do not trust my bow;

     I do not count on my sword to save me.

7 It is You who gives us victory over our enemies

8 Oh God, we give glory to You all day long & constantly praise Your name.



The longer I live, the more I realize that any good that comes out of my life & connection with others is no due to any cleverness or wisdom on my part.

It's simply the favor of God.
