Private Faith

"Be especially careful when you are trying to be good so that you don't make a performance out of it.” (Matthew 6:1 MSG)

When my husband is fixing things around the house, I usually help out by pointing a flashlight on the spot where he is working. For quick jobs, we often use the flashlight app on our cell phones. When the job is done, I’m tempted to switch the phone to camera mode and take a picture of us in front of ‘our’ project. Even though I really had very little to do with fixing the problem, I’m happy to be included in the credits.

We can shine a light on whatever God is doing. We can be open about our vulnerability. We can share our brokenness and how God is working in our lives. We just have to remember to keep the spotlight on God’s work and not on ourselves.

Lord, help me to be sincere and authentic in my worship, while remaining open about Your love and care.
