Ephesians 6:6
(Colossians 3:22). Seeking to please their masters only so long as these have their eyes on them: as Gehazi was a very different man in his master's presence from what he was in his absence (2Ki. 5:1-18).
men-pleasers—not Christ-pleasers (compare Galatians 1:10; I Thessalonians 2:4).
doing the will of God—the unseen but ever present Master: the best guarantee for your serving faithfully your earthly master alike when present and when absent.
from the heart—literally, soul (Psalms 111:1; Romans 13:5).
