Gracious Gratitude
“ It shall not seem hard to you when you send him away free from you; for he has been worth a double hired servant in serving you six years. Then the LORD your God will bless you in all that you do .” (Deuteronomy 15:18 NKJV) Contributions are often expected to move faster than compensation, especially when there are no sufficient monetary gain to justify the appreciation. The worth of every human effort depends on the evaluation of his manager. Although it makes economic sense for anyone to demand more contributions with less compensation, God recommends the opposite sense for our gratification. As part of His redemption plan, compensation is not primarily about remuneration; it is the process of recovery of human self-worth. And every gratitude served for other’s contribution to our life is a grace reserved.
