Luke 12:42-44 "And the Lord replied, "A faithful, sensible servant is one to whom the master can give the responsibility of managing his other household servants and feeding them. If the master returns and finds that the servant has done a good job, there will be a reward. I tell you the truth, the master will put that servant in charge of all he owns."

One thing God promises over and over is that there is a payday someday. While we usually thing of that in a negative light where judgement will occur, God actually describes a positive judgement on many occasions. While we will be remorseful over what we didn't get right or failed to do, God does give us credit for what we did get right.

When you really did the good deed and nobody noticed...God did. When you really didn't say anything bad when others said you did...God wrote it down. When you did the work and others wrongfully got the credit...God's going to reveal it.

Furthermore, He sees it now and doesn't just reward you in heaven. He rewards now. Give it time. Stay faithful. God hasn't forgotten and He rewards justly. Hang in there.

Prayer: Lord, Thank you for being a just God who not only deals with our wrongs but credits us for what we do right.
