Behind the building

Today when do my devotion, this passage spoke to me so much that i would to share over here :


Where we were working was hot, dirty and it smelled bad. We had traveled thousands of miles to do some work projects and on this day we were painting the back of a classroom building at a school for the deaf. The only people who would ever see this part of the building would be the guy who cut the grass and any unfortunate person who would have to work on the septic pit.


Yet, as the young adults diligently painted away, one of the girls, Melissa, put it in perspective by saying : "Nobody will ever come back here to see this, but God will see it. So, let's make it look nice. "

 At times we will think that things that we do is under the table, no one notice it. That time we will feel disappointed, because you didnt get any praise or appreciation from others.
So, in order to feel good about ourselves, we tend to do thing that people easy to recognize your effort.
If you do thing that people not easy recognize yr effort, you will have the thinking of " people do not know my effort, so i do not need to put so much effort on it." So, u simply do the job...
Even somebody not bother to do the work that is unrecognized..

For those who willing to do anything especially the small thing that hardly being sees by people, they should rejoice..
For those who only do thing that will bring fame, popularity to them, they have trouble...
Because God SEES...
He sees everything that you have done, whether is small thing or big thing.. He sees..


Never overlook your work in this world, little thing you do in earth is counted in God's eyes, He will record down everything , good and bad...
After knowing that everything is counted in His eyes, we should fear the Lord...
This will help us to hate the evil things and only obey His commands..
Obey His Words keep us from disaster...

Though others may not observe us
and see how we serve God today,
Our job as servants of Jesus
is to please Him in every way. 
by Branon



No service for Christ goes unnoticed by Him.

  1. totally agree with the passage. sometimes, the selfish nature in us wants the attention and seeks to be complimented, but the best compliment is knowing that god's smiling when nobody else sees. =)
