Giving as a matter of course

Charles Spurgeon
Charles Spurgeon

RESUMEN: Do not give to the poor to be seen by others or for personal reward. Give generously and without seeking recognition. The joy of secret generosity is greater than any worldly banquet. The Lord will reward the secret giver in His own time and in the best way possible.

No promise is made to those who give to the poor to be seen by men. They receive their reward immediately, and cannot expect a double payment.

Let's hide our charity; yes, let's hide it even from ourselves. Give so often and give generously, as a matter of course, to the point that it is no longer noticeable to have helped the poor than to have eaten their regular meals. Give your alms without even whispering: "How generous I am!" Don't try to reward yourself. Leave that matter to God, who never fails to see, record, and reward. Blessed is the man who is secretly occupied with his generosity: he finds special joy in his unknown benevolences. This is the bread that, eaten stealthily, is more delicious than the banquets of kings.
