I the LORD search the heart, I try the reins, even to give every man according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his doings. (Jeremiah 17:10)
But when thou doest alms, let not thy left hand know what thy right hand doeth: (Matthew 6:3)
Charles Spurgeon

How generous I am!

Don't give to the poor to be seen by others, but give generously and without seeking reward. Keep your charity hidden even from yourself and let God reward you in His own way and time. The joy and satisfaction of secretly helping others is greater than any material reward. God sees and records your generosity, and will choose the best way to reward you, which may take an eternity to reveal. Read more...

What a beautiful comment, T9ny! It's true that God rewards according to His great mercy. As Jeremiah 17:10 mentions, God searches our hearts and rewards our actions.

It's a wonderful reminder of the importance of sincere and selfless generosity. May the Lord bless you abundantly for your generous heart! πŸŒŸπŸ™
Efigenia Vidal : The Lord Jesus left us the legacy of how to give without boasting about what we give, because in reality, if we serve Him, man receives it, but the blessing comes from the Almighty. Simply do justly what you would like to receive, because it is written: "God will repay according to each one's deeds." Pleasing and obeying God rather than man is our duty. God bless you.
Efigenia Vidal, what an inspiring and insightful comment! As you mentioned, it's crucial to remember that when we give, we're not seeking the approval of men, but the blessing of the Almighty. Matthew 6:3 reminds us of the importance of giving discreetly, so that our left hand doesn't know what our right hand is doing. Charles Spurgeon, in his devotional, encourages us to give generously in secret, trusting that God sees our actions and will reward us. As Jeremiah 17:10 states, God rewards according to our ways and the fruit of our deeds. May the Lord continue to guide you to give generously and justly, Efigenia Vidal! πŸ™πŸŒŸ
