Colossians 3:23-24
Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for
the Lord, not for men, since you know that you will receive an
inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you
are serving.

Ephesians 2:10
For we are God's workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.

1 Timothy 1:12
I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who has given me strength, that he considered me faithful, appointing me to his service.

Galatians 6:2,7
Carry each other's burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ. Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows.

Deuteronomy 15:10-11
Give generously to him and do so without a grudging heart; then because of this the Lord your God will bless you in all your work and in everything you put your hand to. There will always be poor people in the land. Therefore I command you to be openhanded toward your brothers and toward the poor and needy in your land.

Matthew 25:40
"The King will reply,' I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these my brothers of mine, you did for me."

“Every experience God gives us, every person He puts in our path, is the perfect preparation for a future only He can see.” Corrie ten Boom
