>>Does the lily feel arrogant for the beauty God gave it? Do the mountains boast in their majestic expanse? When the created chooses the role designed for it by the Creator, it is all glory to the Creator.<<

And what did the lily, the mountains or anything else do to “earn” it?

They agreed to be what He made them to be...:) Accepting Jesus’ sacrifice for my sin was the taking of a gift offered to me. The same gift is offered to each one of us. All the same, all desired by the giver. It is not arrogance, it is amazement at His great love...so much so that we long to have others accept also, just as He does.
