What are the things we mention in conversation that makes us feel better about ourselves? Our past accomplishments, our current activities, and our future goals. We also like to connect ourselves to other prominent events and people. We may reason that as long as we don't drone on and on about these things that we are not boasting. But maybe boasting is much more subtle than obnoxious self-proclamation. Maybe the boasting Paul speaks about in Galatians 6:14 is merely claiming something as our own. The only thing Paul calls us to focus on is the work of Christ in our life that was accomplished at the cross.
