Luke 17:7 "Suppose one of you had a servant plowing or looking after the sheep. Would he say to the servant when he comes in from the field, 'Come along now and sit down to eat'? 8 Would he not rather say, 'Prepare my supper, get yourself ready and wait on me while I eat and drink; after that you may eat and drink'? 9 Would he thank the servant because he did what he was told to do? 10 So you also, when you have done everything you were told to do, should say, 'We are unworthy servants; we have only done our duty.'"

It feels good to get a pat on the back when we do something good, doesn't it? However, sometimes in life when you choose to do the right thing nobody seems to notice. We go out of our way to help someone, and we don't get even a "thank you." However, in this short parable Jesus reminds us that we are simply servants. We don't do good deeds to get praise from men, we must simply remember that we exist to honor and serve God. One day we will get our reward. One day we will receive our crowns that Jesus promised- but in that day we'll realize how truly unworthy we are compared to God.
