How generous I am!
Charles SpurgeonNo 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.
