Today's Scripture *January 5, 2010*
Matthew 6:3
But when you give to someone in need, don't let your left hand know what your right hand is doing.
When Jesus says not to tell your left hand what your right hand is doing, He is teaching that our motives for giving to God and to others must be pure. It is easy to give with mixed motives, to do something for someone if it will benefit us in return. But believers should avoid all scheming and give for the pleasure of giving and as a response to God's love and faithfulness to us.
Why do you give?
God, we want to give to others and to You for the right reasons! To see You lifted up and glorified.
Help us to give without thought of how it might benefit us.
May our motives be pure and honorable in Your sight. In Jesus' Name, Amen..
God bless!
Your Sister in Christ,
April
