Proverbs 22:29 (ESV)

29 Do you see a man skillful in his work? He will stand before kings; he will not stand before obscure men.

He who is faithful in little things, who works diligently, efficiently, and whose products are of excellent quality, will be promoted eventually to working on greater things and for greater masters. Such promotion comes in the Lord’s timing, and the way to it may lead through many deaths and disappointments. But here we have a promise of God to be grasped by faith. Thus, let us not worry about whether men see and appreciate our work. Instead, let us work skilfully for the glory of our God, the King of kings, who will not let his diligent servants remain hidden forever.
