Don’t Give Money To Glorify Yourself. Give Without Thinking of Yourself At All

“So whenever you do almsgiving[a], do not trumpet it before you as-indeed the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the lanes[b] so that they may be glorified by people. Truly I say to you, they are receiving their reward[c] in full.

And your Father, the One seeing in secret, will reward you.
