Message of the day – Giving in secret

Message of the day – Giving in secret

Matthew 6:3-4 – “But when you give to the poor, don’t let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, so that your giving may be done in secret. And your Father who sees in secret will reward you.”

In this verse Jesus orders us clearly that whatever we give in the way of Lord must be given in secret. The Word of God doesn´t appreciate those who pretend to be great by giving and that is why it instructs us to give in secret.

There is no reward for the giving that was done with the purpose to show off. For being Christians we must do charity in secret as giving in secret is an unselfish act that puts all the attention on the Lord and He alone will reward us for our good deeds. Amen.
