God has a sense of humor and it shows.  Paul gave a sarcastic rebuke in 1 Corinthians 4 and it is timely not just for then, but also for now.  There was a pride issue in Corinth and Paul was wanting to make sure they stayed humble.  While we may want to make things work on our own, its important to recognize how God has this and He’s the only one that will solve the problem anyway.
