Heavenly Father, most enjoy a pat on the back when they have done good deeds along with favorable comments. As a Christian, there are many times that we do good or take a position, in accordance to the Bible, that results in our being ridiculed, mocked, leaving us conflicted within our emotions. Lord, as we become a disciple, those challenging times come more frequent. Lord, I ask for those brothers and sisters that are becoming more and more like Jesus in their faith walk, that You would increase the importance of eternity in our hearts so that we don’t become weary of doing good and that we don't expect rewards here and now. Help us to remember, in many instances, the proper time that we reap a harvest will not be on this side but on the other side of eternity. Above all, remind us through Your Holy Spirit, that we choose to do good because it pleases You. May the fulfillment of pleasing You be of much greater importance than pleasing or impressing those among us. We pray this in Jesus’ name. Amen.
