Nameless

2Kings:13:5

Then the Lord provided someone to rescue the Israelites from the tyranny of the Arameans.

Oh! How wonderful to be that nameless somebody in somebody's life. Where He uses for the sake of His name's glory alone. Because we become a nobody in anybody's life, everybody would see God's hand.

But when we try to become that somebody, it becomes useless. Yet so, in contrast, when God  brings that somebody, the purpose is served.

Where lies our happiness? In helping someone or in introducing ourselves to them after the help.

How many times we have vanished off from the scene after the help is done. Or do we wait to be acknowledged. Do we wait to be thanked for. Do we wait to be appreciated.

We might not be the priest or Levite who did not help the Jew who was attacked by the robbers on his way to Jericho. But do we want to be known as the Samaritan who helped him? Do we want the Jew to testify what I did for him, or the innkeeper to tell others of my kindful act?

Jesus says - But when you give to the needy, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing. Matt:6:3

Here we are, blabbering around what we did, making known to others the good things we did, brightening and bulking our CV.- I did this; I did that.

How self seeking? How prideful is my heart?

Let us challenge ourselves to be that nameless somebody who would be an angel that God sends in somebody's life, not seeking acceptance but pointing to God Almighty.
