Matthew 6:1-15

Jesus Teaches About Giving To The Needy
1-4 Do not do good to be noticed. This does not reward you from God. When you give to the needy, don't make it so obvious. Giving should be something that is almost secret. The right hand should not know what the left hand is doing.

Jesus Teaches About Prayer
5-15 Jesus talks about the manner that we pray. It's not about praying in front of public and making it look grand. Rather Jesus tells us to go into our rooms and pray sincerely. And do not be too verbose and fancy with words. Then Jesus shows us the type of prayer we need to pray. This becomes the Lord's Prayer.
