healing shall spring forth speedily, And your righteousness
shall go before you; The glory of the Lord shall
be your rear guard."

you do."

and follow Me.' "
Matthew 6:1- 4
"Take heed that you do not do your charitable
deeds before men, to be seen by them. Otherwise you
have no reward from your Father in heaven. Therefore,
when you do a charitable deed, do not sound a trumpet
before you as the hypocrites do in the synagogues
and in the streets, that they may have glory from
men. Assuredly, I say to you, they have their reward.
But when you do a charitable deed, do not let your
left hand know what your right hand is doing, that
your charitable deed may be in secret; and your Father
who sees in secret will Himself reward you openly."
