#454 Unseen Servants

Unseen Servants Unseen Servants and the risk of bitterness

As writers, we can often feel unseen. If we're not careful, we can become discontent and desire the praise and recognition from men & women. Are we able to be faithful and seek our approval and recognition from God alone? Let's take a look at some examples in scripture.

• Gehazi, servant to Elisha (2 Kings 5:20-27)
• Martha (Luke 10:38-42)
• Older son (Luke 15:25-32)
• Women supporting Jesus (Luke 8:1-3)
• Our friend Craig Sampson, when I worked in YFC. This man was one of the best volunteers you could ever ask for. Always faithful with no desire for personal gain and recognition.
• Matthew 6:4-6 - "Your Father who sees in secret…"
• Revelation 2:2-4 - "I know the things you do…"

May we learn to be content as unseen servants for the Lord, regardless of any praise or recognition we receive from people.
