Let Your Good Deeds Shine Out For All To See, So That Everyone Will Praise Your Heavenly Father.


Let
Your Good Deeds Shine Out For All To See,
So That Everyone Will Praise Your Heavenly Father.
Scripture
Matthew 5
16 In the same way, let your good deeds shine out for all to see, so that everyone will praise your heavenly Father.
Observation8-10
What is your life verse? Matthew 5:16 is mine! It is a verse that I must have memorized as a young child back when I walked to church with my Granny. Doing good works will not get us to Heaven, but they will bring glory to our Father in Heaven.
You and I were created to do good works.
Lets get out there and shine today!
Ephesians 2:8-10
8 For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— 9 not by works, so that no one can boast.10 For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.
Galatians 6:9-10
Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up. Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all people, especially to those who belong to the family of believers.
2 Thessalonians 3:13
And as for you, brothers and sisters, never tire of doing what is good.
Application
I will look for ways to 'shine' today!
How about you?
Prayer

Heavenly Father, I know that the only way to serve You is to serve the people around me. I am here on earth to do good works. I know it was why I was created. It is why I continue to have breath! So help me to keep the focus of my life off of myself and on the people that you bring across my path.
