Anyway

People are often unreasonable and self-centered. Forgive them anyway.

If you are kind, people may accuse you of ulterior motives. Be kind anyway.

If you are honest, people may cheat you. Be honest anyway.

If you find happiness, people may be jealous. Be happy anyway.

The good you do today may be forgotten tomorrow.  Do good anyway.

Give the world the best you have and it may never be enough. Give your best anyway.

For you see, in the end, it is between you and God. It was never between you and them anyway.

These words are attributed to Mother Teresa. Let us live so that others also attribute them to us.

The ways of right-living people glow with light; the longer they live, the brighter they shine. (Proverbs 4:18, MSG)

Prayer- Lord, help us do the right thing, just because it is right. In Christ. Amen.
