Your Father Sees
Be careful not to do your good works in public in order to attract attention. If you do, your Father in heaven will not reward you. So when you give to the poor, don’t announce it with trumpet fanfare. This is what hypocrites do in the synagogues and on the streets in order to be praised by people. I can guarantee this truth: That will be their only reward. When you give to the poor, don’t let your left hand know what your right hand is doing. Give your contributions privately. Your Father sees what you do in private. He will reward you. Matthew 6:1-4 GW Put aside the noise of your day and sit with me. Listen for my guiding you in the way you should be going. Empty your impatient anger and be washed in my love and forgiveness. Fill yourself with my word. It contains the guiding truth for your life. Listen, believing I will speak to you and guard your way.
