Not your own praise
Let your light so shine before people, that they may see your good works (Matthew 5:16). So far let a Christian be from ever designing or desiring to conceal his religion. On the contrary, let it be your desire not to conceal it, not to put the light under a bushel (Matthew 5:15). Let it be your care to place it on a candlestick, that it may give light to all who are in the house. Only take heed not to seek your own praise in this, not to desire any honor to yourselves. But let it be your sole aim that all who see your good works may glorify your Father who is in heaven.

2. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works: so far let a Christian be from ever designing, or desiring to conceal his religion. On the contrary, let it be your desire, not to conceal it; not to put the light under a bushel. Let it be your care, to place it on a candlestick, that it may give light to all that are in the house. Only take heed, not to seek your own praise herein, not to desire any honour to yourselves. But let it be your sole aim, that all, who see your good works, may glorify your Father which is in heaven.
