1 Timothy 5: 25 So also good deeds are conspicuous; and even when they are not, they cannot remain hidden.
First Paul asserts that evil deeds are sometimes conspicuous, but sometimes they aren't apparent until later. This has followed instructions for dealing with elderly members of the church and widows.
It's interesting to think that all deeds become apparent in time. Today we are more aware of this than ever, with the advent of cell phone cameras and social media. No one should ever suppose that their secrets will remain hidden.
Prayer: Lord, You see all that I do. You know all that I think and say. Guide me towards actions and thoughts that reflect on You well. I want to serve, and I don't want my weakness to bring Your word down. Help me to lift my faith up, so that others may come to know You better.
Amen
