If you do good, people will accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives.

Do good anyway!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Almost every day, I hear a friend, a college, or a news reporter casting suspicion on the motives of someone who is doing good. They imply that others who seem to be doing good are only pretending to do good when in fact they have their own selfish ulterior motives.

We may be accused of being selfish and have motives that are ulterior to ourselves for gratification by others who are not happy that we are doing good.

Today I attended a funeral and was met by so many with praise for how I have lost my weight and kept it off. That felt good. But I really wonder where they were when I was heavy and still doing good for others? Oh well it does not matter, for we must do our best to help others and just accept that we can not change some things in life. The one thing we have done is change the way we feel, and look and how we now have more life to give to ourselves and those around us that we love.

Oh God, Whom I praise,

do not remain silent,

for wicked and deceitful men,

have opened their mouths against me;

they have spoken against me with lying tounges.

With words of hatred they surround me;

they attack me without cause.

In return for my friendship they accuse me,

but I am a woman of prayer.

They repay me evil for good,

and hatred for my friendship.

Psalm 109

Do not let those tear you down for what you have done and accomplished, continue to do good and show them that you were led for this journey. Keep the Faith!:confused:
