‏ Ephesians 6:6

6. (Col 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 Ga 1:10; 1Th 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 (Psa 111:1; Ro 13:5).
