Ananias and his wife Sapphira left us a clear and tragic reminder: When we give and serve, God cares more about the inward reality than outward appearances. What do you care more about? The reality God knows or what others see? Maybe if we found our significance in the truth that God loved us so much He sent His only Son, we wouldn’t feel the need to put on a show for those around us. Wouldn’t that be a refreshing way to live?
