Self worth and net worth are not the same.

A church must grow larger and smaller at the same time. Larger through worship and smaller through small groups.

There is no growth without change, and there is no change without loss.

God wants to use you to make a difference in His world. He wants to work through you. What matters is not the duration of your life, but the donation of it. Not how long you lived, but how you lived.

Surrender . . .sacrificing my life or suffering in order to change what needs to be changed

Sacrifice is the essence of love, which is the essence of God.

Bible makes that really clear that there are rewards in heaven. I believe there is reassignment. In other words, faithful in little things I will trust you in much. And if you have not been faithful with that which is not his own, who will give you your own. And if you've been unfaithful with unrighteous mammon who's going to trust you the true riches of heaven.
