Kingdom Witness

Should I Keep Track of the Good I Do?

Let not your left hand know. Yet your Father sees in secret.

In short

Jesus said, "when thou doest alms, let not thy left hand know what thy right hand doeth." So a record of the good you do must never be a public score or a boast. But a private record, seen only by the Father who sees in secret, can be pure worship: not "look what I did," but "look what God let me be part of."

What the Scriptures say

But when thou doest alms, let not thy left hand know what thy right hand doeth:

Matthew 6:3 (KJV)

For God is not unrighteous to forget your work and labour of love, which ye have shewed toward his name, in that ye have ministered to the saints, and do minister.

Hebrews 6:10 (KJV)

Why keep it at all

God is not unrighteous to forget your work and labour of love. He remembers. The danger is not remembering your own good works before God; the danger is displaying them before people for reward. Keep it secret, keep it His, and it stays holy.

Begin now, quietly

A kindness you did in His name today

A quiet record, kept only on this device. Nothing is sent anywhere. Seen, as Jesus said, by your Father who sees in secret.

This lives on your device alone. Inside The Living Bread your Witness is yours across all your devices, private by default, never a score. Open your Witness.

Carry it further

The record above stays on this device. Inside The Living Bread it becomes your Witness: private by default, kept across your devices, and a way to carry others toward Christ too.

Keep walking
