Humans often praise men for their skills when they see them. And they praise men for their plans that are wise. But we should remember that all skills and all wisdom are given to man by God and therefore we should praise God. When we see the great mountains, we should praise God for creating those mountains.
Many praise men ... but we should praise God who gives all things to men.

18 Riches and honour are with me; yea, durable riches and righteousness.
21 That I may cause those that love me to inherit substance; and I will fill their treasures.
22 The Lord possessed me in the beginning of His way, before His works of old.
24 When there were no depths, I was brought forth; when there were no fountains abounding with water.

29 When HE gave to the sea His decree, that the waters should not pass His commandment: when HE appointed the foundations of the earth:
