Liv said.... We should not boast in ourselves or think higher of ourselves than we ought to. Our boast should be In the salvation we received from Jesus. None of us did anything to deserve to be saved. We can't do good works to earn his favor. It's by his grace through faith - only. God wants to save us to do good things for him but let's get it straight .... Any good thing we do is for him, in him and through him. We don't earn anything by it. Got it? Got it!!!
Deuteronomy 6:5-9 "Love the Lord our God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength. These commandments that I give you today are to be upon your hearts. Impress them on your children. Talk about them when you SIT at home and when you WALK along the road, when you LIE DOWN and when you GET UP. Tie them as symbols on your hands and bind them on your foreheads. Write them on the doorframes of your houses and on your gates."

Saved by grace through faith!!
For you are saved by grace through faith, and this is not from yourselves; it is God’s gift — not from works, so that no one can boast. For we are His creation, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared ahead of time so that we should walk in them. (Ephesians 2:8-10)
