Why??

Why?

"They do all of their deeds to be seen by others...."

Matthew 23:5

"Each one's work will become manifest, for the Day will disclose it, because it will be revealed by fire, and the fire will test what sort of work each one has done."

1 Cor 3:13

There seems to be such a casual attitude among Christians in service today.  We go to church because it's just what you're supposed to do.  We buy the fast food for the car behind us because we really should pay it forward.  We do our duty and fill our Operation Christmas Child shoeboxes because it's the generous thing to do.

Why?

Why do you do what you do?

Think about it! Do you ever think about it?

Let us this day bow at His feet and thank Him for being our substitute and taking our sins on Himself.....let us determine to live for Him this day and give our lives in service to our Savior and His Kingdom out of a sincere heart of gratitude.

"Love so amazing, so divine, demands my soul, my life, my ALL!"

Watts

When we stand before the Lord, whatever we've done just because it's what you should do, anything that's done just for recognition and glory will be just wood, hay and stubble burnt up in the fire.

Only what's done for Christ will last.  So.... To GOD be the glory!

Start off with a big "Why?" today. 

I want to live so that I don't give a rip about people knowing of the good I do, the work I do.  Only Jesus! What He thinks is all that matters! All is in vain unless His hand touches what we do!

May you seek His face before you face any other today.
