This is the paradox of the Kingdom, (For whosoever will save his life shall lose it; but whosoever shall lose his life for my sake and the gospel’s, the same shall save it. For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul? Β Mark 8:35-37 ) true life is found not in self-preservation or worldly gain, but in self-giving love and devotion to Christ. Itβs a challenge to every ambition that tempts us to trade eternal worth for temporary success. And itβs a comfort, too: that losing we in Him is the path to being truly found.

Let me not chase the fleeting treasures of this world nor trade my soul for what cannot last. Strip away the illusions of gain and awaken me to the riches of Your grace.
May Your gospel be my compass, Your love my anchor, and Your cross my glory. I give You, my life. Not to preserve it, but to offer it wholly, that I may truly live.
Love You, thank You, praise You and give You all the honor and glory in Your Precious Name Amen and
Amen.
