The wise work diligently without allegiance to words. They teach by doing, not by saying; they are genuinely helpful, not discriminating, positive, not possessive. They do not proclaim their accomplishments, and because they do not proclaim them, credit for them can never be taken away.
Each thing I have received, from Thee it came,
Each thing for which I hope, from Thy love it will come,
Each thing I enjoy, it is of Thy bounty,
Each thing I ask comes of Thy disposing.
