Knowing that whatever good thing each one does, this he will receive back from the Lord, whether slave or free.
Your status in life does not diminish the blessing received when you do good towards others.
Problems will arise, though, when we consciously or unwittingly place expectations on these blessing from God. Such as…
we start thinking on WHAT God should give us…or, WHEN God should be blessing us, or HOW that blessing should come.
So…while that good thing we have done is still good, our faith gets blindsided because we develop tunnel vision from these expectations, failing to see all that God has for us during that time
As I conclude, let me give some suggestions on not missing out on God’s blessings:
First, keep focused on what you can do, namely doing good, and let go of what you can’t manage, namely God’s blessing
Then, secondly, become aware of God’s blessing by simply acknowledging both His faithfulness in keeping this promise, and His love towards you;… then, yield that blessing back to Him for His continued work in your life and the life of others.
