In today's Gospel, Jesus says that we must not call for attention to ourselves when
we do godly deeds such as alms giving, praying, and fasting. Our faith must not
just be for show but sincere.
If
we think of the way we deal with God as a relationship, then it makes sense
that some acts of love we do for God be done in private, just as this is the
case for any relationship. The audience of these acts of love must be directed
to the lovee, as it were, and not to every one else who we want to be
watching.
