Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven. - Matthew 5:16
These day we have so many believers who just want to do nothing else but to show off. Yes, our light must so shine before men and they would see our GOODWORK. God is glorified not by our show but by our good work.
Be yourself, don't be who you are not because you will never last there.
That they may see your good works - The proper motive to influence us is not simply that we may be seen but it should be that our heavenly Father may be glorified. The Pharisees acted to be seen of men, true Christians act to glorify God, and care little what people may think of them, except as by their conduct others may he brought to honor God, yet they should so live that people may see from their conduct what is the proper nature of their religion.
You want to testify of the Lord's provisions, do it to glorify God and not to show off. You want to dress to service, dress to honour God and not to show off. The focus shouldn't be on you but God. Anytime attention is shifted to you, you are doomed for a downfall. We shine for God to be glorified not for us to please people.
The next time you want to do something, ask yourself am I showing off or am I glorifying God?
Thank God is Friday, it's been a great week.
Good Morning beloved and do have an awesome day.
