Bible Verse of The Day – 5-11-24

Colossians 3:23-24 (NKJV) 23 And whatever you do, do it heartily, as to the Lord and not to men, 24 knowing that from the Lord you will receive the reward of the inheritance; for you serve the Lord Christ.

Do we try with everything in us to please God?

Do we truly put a lot of effort into doing the right thing and making the right choice even though at times we’d rather be doing something else?

Do we feel alone at times, like no one understands why we do what we do, like no one is ever paying attention, and like we are up against a brick wall?

Does it bother us that no one seems to see the effort we put forth, the times when we stop our mouths from saying things that we would love to say or feel the need to say?

Does it bother us that the love we share, and the kindness we work hard to put forth, seem to be falling on deaf ears and not appreciated?

We want to encourage you today. Know that God sees you!

He sees your efforts. He sees your persistence. He sees your heart. He sees you trying and going out of your way to be kind, to share love and keep shining, even when you are tired.

Don’t stop loving.

You are a blessing. You are God’s child full of His love.

Your reward is greater than you could ever know. And most times it won’t come from those we go out of our way to help. But God Himself will reward us.

1 Corinthians 16:14 (NKJV) 14 Let all that you do be done with love.

If you know someone who will enjoy this or be encouraged by it, please feel free to share it with them!
