For example, you put yourself through university by studying hard and working full time. Then someone says, you should thank god for giving you the strength. Like wtf do you mean, I busted my ass day in and day out but I’m supposed to thank god for it?
It kills me when people give up the concept of having power within themselves and instead attribute it to “God.”
My grandmother would do this all the time. She would never accept that her determination, her skill, her prowess got her where she was, it was always “I thank God that he did this for me.”…NO GRANDMA, YOU DID THIS! It’s so frustrating to see people feel essentially powerless unless God does it for them.
