Questioning the Leader’s Motives

• "And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men; Knowing that of the Lord ye shall receive the reward of the inheritance: for ye serve the Lord Christ" (Col. 3:23,24).
• "For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his angels; and then he shall reward every man according to his works" (Matt. 16:27).
• "For whosoever shall give you a cup of water to drink in my name, because ye belong to Christ, verily I say unto you, he shall not lose his reward" (Mark 9:41).
• "Now he that planteth and he that watereth are one: and every man shall receive his own reward according to his own labour. For we are labourers together with God" (1 Cor. 3:8,9).

Dear God, I am here to serve my leader. Forgive me for those times that I've desired or even sought for his approval. Of course, I want to do those things that bless him, but I realize my reward comes from You. First and foremost I want to please You. When I do that, my leader can't help but be blessed. I am committed to conduct myself in such a way that when I meet You face to face, You will say, "Well done, thou good and faithful servant." Amen.
