Charitable Collaboration

 “But when you do a charitable deed, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, that your charitable deed may be in secret; and your Father who sees in secret will Himself reward you openly.” ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭6:3-4‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

Corporate collaboration promotes unity, cooperation, and efficiency in every system with an evidence of divided interests. Even in the household of faith, Christian services and offerings are often assembled for a corporate collaboration in prayer, fasting, and in the rendering of common interests. But when a private attention is drawn to an individual interest, the rendering of a private service in this case is called a charitable collaboration between two parties (i.e., a benefactor, and a beneficiary). Beyond the common good of a corporate collaboration, it is acknowledged that the hidden interest of many benefactors is fame and attention seeking. Therefore, even when a charitable collaboration is intended, a carnal-minded benefactor will extend his deeds corporately for selfish interests. Unfortunately, these selfish interests do well liquidate all of his heaven’s rewards. So, in all our charitable collaboration, Christ’s admonition remains solemn “do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, that your charitable deed may be in secret; and your Father who sees in secret will Himself reward you openly”.
