He had been working very hard for long hours. He didnt do it to be rewarded. Nonetheless, when someone else was given a reward and not him, he felt it. It didnt seem fair.
She had been working very hard for a long time. She didnt do it to get recognition. Nonetheless, when someone else whom she had mentioned as being a part of the project got most of the recognition and praise, she felt it. It didnt seem fair either.
And yet.....
To speak out would seem to be blowing one's own trumpet. Self praise is no praise at all.
Would being silent come across as being humble? Or would one be perceived as a door mat?
The phrase "Your reward will be in heaven" rankles sometimes. But WHEN should one speak out, if at all?
Wisdom required.
And the Man said whoever asked, He would give of it liberally.
It would be best to ask for that above all else.
