Unforgotten Kindness
May 18, 2025
God is not unjust; he will not forget your work and the love you have shown him as you have helped his people and continue to help them.
Hebrews 6:10 (NIV)
The world may not always remember our good deeds, but we have an assurance from our scripture reading today that God does not forget. Our Father in Heaven keeps perfect records and notes all the love we've shown towards His name by helping others.
There is beauty in the way God sees us. While the world may choose to disregard our kindness or take it for granted, it's comforting to know that every kind word spoken, every loving act, every sacrificial giving does not go unnoticed by Him. This should inspire and encourage us to keep sowing love even when the world doesn't seem to appreciate it.
God rewards each act of kindness, not necessarily with material wealth, but with peace, wisdom, joy, and strength. It’s these intangible rewards that truly enrich our lives and draw us closer to Him. Let's remember today that our labor of love isn't wasted, but stored up in heaven, and will surely manifest its fruits in due time.
