And that is a big thing of works, like the parable of the sheep and goats. We are to care for those around us. But we are to do it because we love them and the Lord. If we do them for the recognition of the world we get our reward. Christ taught that too when praying in public or flaunting your tithes.

Yes, go into your closet, shut the door, and God who knows all secrets will openly reward you.
Now in growing up from being on milk and not solid food yet. Ask God for the being made as wise as a serpent, remaining harmless as a dove. That remaining harmless is not easy when made aware of the evil all around us, even in our first born self's
I think that is wise what Paul talks on if Phil 3 about put no trust in self or other flesh either.
It is a long journey here on earth, for me anyways. Learning daily many new, and this unredeemed flesh body I am in still at war to want its fleshly ways. I need God tom lead, definitely not me
