You have nothing to be proud of. If you are ever used at all, bear in mind that it is God speaking in you, and not you yourself.

Faith is to take God at His Word – DL Moody
Some say that faith is the gift of God. So is the air, but you have to breathe it; so is bread, but you have to eat it. Some are wanting some miraculous kind of feeling. That is not faith. “Faith cometh by hearing and hearing by the Word of God” (Rom. 10:17). That is whence faith comes. It is not for me to sit down and wait for faith to come stealing over me with a strong sensation, but is for me to take God at His Word.
