“Take heed that you do not do your charitable deeds before men, to be seen by them. Otherwise you have no reward from your Father in heaven. Therefore, when you do a charitable deed [ when you help people], do not sound a trumpet before you as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may have glory from men.
[ Don't go about telling the whole world, So you held someone now the whole world has got to know, hasn't anyone helped you before or blessed you before? it would have been better you didn't do it. But even in the body of Christ we are doing it, God blesses you so you can be a blessing to another but to blow your trumpet as if it was with your own might that you did what you did to help a sister or a brother."]
Assuredly, I say to you, they have their reward. But when you do a charitable deed, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, that your charitable deed may be in secret; and your Father who sees in secret will Himself reward you openly.
Matthew 6: 1-4 New King James Version (NKJV)
