The King’s Smile
The master was full of praise, “Well done, my good and faithful servant.
You have been faithful in handling this small amount, so now I will give you many more responsibilities.
Let’s celebrate together!”
Matthew 25:21 NLT
Good job! You’ll hear these words if you do My work well.
Well thought is good, well said is nice, but well done gets My attention.
I expect you to do something for Me—not just study or discuss it.
Don’t just sit around and do nothing wrong—do something right.
I am omniscient—I see the quality of service and the purity of motives.
Invest time and energy in My work and I will commend you one day.
Good heart! At the cross, I took your sin and gave you perfection.
I am merciful—I forgive repentant hearts.
Trust Me and I will give you My righteousness.
Good attitude! The Faithful One is your example—walk in My steps.
I am the Servant King—be subject to My will and live like Me.
Without Me, you can do nothing worthwhile—without faith, you fail.
For every responsibility I give you, I also grant you response-ability.
Go out on a limb—don’t play it safe on this faith adventure.
I inspire and energize you—yield and you can do what I ask of you.
Good response! Trustworthiness and dependability are what I look for.
I am your Boss—work like it.
Give Me your best effort—strive to reach the high standards I set.
Shoddy work and halfhearted efforts are unacceptable.
I am gracious—I bless you with strength to serve.
I trust you—now do your very best for Me.
Good reward! You’ll receive something better than a paycheck.
Be faithful in small things—invest in My cause and earn big dividends.
I observe all you do for Me—trust Me and I will make it all worthwhile.
Nothing you do in My name is a waste of time—eternity will prove it.
When you stand before your King, all you’ve done, yes everything
will be worth it . . . rest assured I’ll reward you with My smile.
With this one thought keep going . . . living, working for My smile.
