Our president has been sharply criticized for his statement: “You didn’t
build that!” Although I might
adamantly insist that “I did,” I am persuaded of the facts that I did not
without the help of others build anything.
Educationally, others provided rudimentary knowledge which I used in what
I built. Materially, others
furnished parts of what I built.
Elementally, the One provided everything I and the others used to build
what I built.
How disgustingly arrogant I am!
And, at once, how naively puny!
If not for my educators, my life span would never afford the time
required to discover the intricacies of building a bicycle, let alone a
multi-billion dollar business. If
not for parts providers - assuming I had the expertise - I would require three
hundred years to manufacture an automobile. If not for the One there would be
nothing to build with, nor would I be here to think I built it.
