Sometimes we commit sin knowingly and tell ourselves that no one will ever finds out. We cheated ourselves and hoping that no one including God would not know about it. Unfortunately, time will tell. Small sin will lead us to form the habit of wrong doing into something that we eventually accept as part of life. We are blinded because we chose to ignore the teaching and commandments of our Lord in order to satisfy our worldly lust and desire.
Yes, we are to make it our purpose to do what is right, not only in the sight of our Lord but also in the sight of men. However, we are reminded not to conform to worldly standards. They will not last. By the grace of our Lord, we should be able to differentiate the values between what God wants and that of men. Psalm 118: 8 (which is the centre verse of the whole bible) says: "It is better to trust in the Lord than to depend on man".
Amen to Psalm 118:8, for it is the amount of trust and faith in our Lord Jesus that we can withstand the onslaught of temptations, wrong desires and worldly attractions. Our aspirations in life are to unable us to serve our Lord with all our hearts. By our example and contribution towards the community, we can fulfill our Lord's calling.
Daily work takes on eternal value when it is done for God.
