#but atst i don't want to become a wet blanket that's never excited for them and can end up diminishing their sense of accomplishment

I've been wondering if I should use the phrase "I'm proud of you" or even just terms like "good job" or "you did it" and adjectives like great/amazing/perfect etc to other people. Because yes I want to congratulate people on their accomplishments and feel good when they achieve things, especially if they feel like they didn't. But is this feeding into pride and giving them credit for something when God is the only one that deserves any credit and all glory?

#i know it's not that deep most likely and i'm overthinking #but it's also something that we think doesn't matter that much when it actually does #idk i thought about it sometime last year when i was fangirling and my faves won awards or pulled off amazing performances #and i rattled off about how 'i'm so so so so so proud of you' and how mind-blowing and amazing they are to me on their social media #but atst i don't want to become a wet blanket that's never excited for them and can end up diminishing their sense of accomplishment #just because they technically didn't do it. God did #you understand? does any of this make sense? #this is probably one of those thoughts i should keep to myself #random #thoughts #humility #pride #christianity #accomplishments #achievements #congratulatory #do not give yourself credit #all credit to God #all glory belongs to God #all glory to God
