MY QUESTIONS for GOD

Does God care about my reputation? Should I care about my reputation?

A MOMENT with GOD

Work willingly at whatever you do, as though you were working for the Lord rather than for people. Remember that the Lord will give you an inheritance as your reward, and that the Master you are serving is Christ.

Colossians 3:23-24

Choose a good reputation over great riches; being held in high esteem is better than silver or gold.

Proverbs 22:1

The Holy Spirit produces this kind of fruit in our lives: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control.

Galatians 5:22-23

People often think that your personal life does not matter as long as you perform well on the job or look good in public. God, however, does not make a distinction between your public life and your private life. Justice, righteousness, integrity, mercy, honesty, fairness, and faithfulness are essential traits of a godly person’s character and reputation because they reflect God’s character. That is why God cares about your reputation—and you should too. You will develop a good reputation when you display the same godly integrity in private as you do in public. What matters most is not what others think of you but what God thinks of you. This perspective helps you maintain consistency between your public life and private life. Every time you do something to please the Lord and enhance your reputation with him, you will experience a divine moment in your relationship with God, and you will inspire trust in others.

DIVINE PROMISE

Never let loyalty and kindness leave you! Tie them around your neck as a reminder. Write them deep within your heart. Then you will find favor with both God and people, and you will earn a good reputation. Proverbs 3:3-4
