I know that I cannot do anything...absolutely anything in my own strength.
It is God and God alone who works to do His good pleasure. He is the God who removes obstacles, who lifts burdens, who, ...gets this... changes hearts.
He is the one where my faith is created - Yes! He created MY FAITH!!! It's not me at all! He is Creator of all. He creates my thirst, my hunger...for Him! Praise the Lord!
Yes, he is the author, the creator...of even FORGIVENESS! He 1st forgave me, so that I am able to forgive another...and another,...and even another... I have an AWESOME GOD! More than mere words can describe...
