Watch out! Don’t do your good deeds publicly…
The Scripture for today’s prayer:
“Watch out! Don’t do your good deeds publicly, to be admired by others, for you will lose the reward from your Father in heaven. 2 When you give to someone in need, don’t do as the hypocrites do—blowing trumpets in the synagogues and streets to call attention to their acts of charity! I tell you the truth, they have received all the reward they will ever get. 3 But when you give to someone in need, don’t let your left hand know what your right hand is doing. 4 Give your gifts in private, and your Father, who sees everything, will reward you.
Matthew 6:1-4 New Living Translation (NLT)
Prayer: Lord, I will strive to be discreet in my good deeds. Lead me to those opportunities to do your will. Amen.
