Work for God's eye',

Back to Treasures from J.R. Miller

"Be careful not to do your 'acts of righteousness' before men, to be seen by them. If you do, you will have no reward from your Father in heaven." Matthew 6:1 

No grace shines more brightly in a Christian, than humility. Wherever SELF comes in — it mars the beauty of the work we are doing. Seek to do your work noiselessly. Do not try to draw attention to yourself — to make others know that you did some beautiful thing. Be content to pour your rich life into other wasted, weary lives — and see them blessed and made more holy — and then hide away and let Christ have the honour. Work for God's eye — and even then, do not think much about reward. Seek to be a blessing — and never think of self-glory. 

"Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you." Matthew 6:4
