Sometimes you welcome people only for them to show you how unwelcoming you are. Sometimes you generously help people only for them to show you how extravagant and evil you are. Sometimes you teach people only for them to show you how ignorant you are. Sometimes you open your doors to people only for them to show you how dirty your room is. Sometimes you make way for people only for them to block your ways. Sometimes you draw people closer to you only for them to teach you the real meaning of betrayal and loneliness. Sometimes you smile to people only for them to show you the color of your teeth. Sometimes you play with people only for them to show you how uncouth you are. In life, sometimes, your very best intentions shall be seen as woefully bad. Sometimes in life, your good deeds and acts would see another meaning, but no matter how people perceive, accept and treat you or your intentions, acts and deeds, know yourself, and dare not to be changed by circumstances so easily. Regardless of how hurtful circumstances might be, dare to guard your heart and your tongue, so you may not speak what you should never say that would make you miss your reward before the Sovereign Lord. Keep doing what you have to do, as you have to do as a living sacrifice to the Sovereign God for from Him comes your true reward!
