Is the Catholic position that all glory belongs to God, or does God share glory with men based on their free will decisions

All honor and glory is Thine, Almighty Father, now and in the ages of ages. We are all reflected light; the free will is in proper placement of our reflective surfaces.

If all honor and glory belongs to God, then none belongs to man, and thus salvation is not dependent upon man exercising his "free will" decision to do anything.

"Reflected light and surfaces" sounds warm and poetic, but it means zilch.

We are either saved by His completed work on the cross, or we're not.
