We do not focus on our
lives.
James 4:14 from the
Modern Korean Bible says:
“You do not even know
what will happen tomorrow.
What is your life? You are a mist that appears for a little while
and then vanishes.”
Since we are not just
passing mist but valuable to God,
we do not worry about
what we will eat or drink or what we will wear for our bodies
(Matthew 6:25, 31).
The reason is that we
trust that our heavenly Father knows
that we need all these
things (v. 32).
Also, we believe Jesus’
words,
“Whoever wants to save
their life will lose it,
but whoever loses their
life for me will find it” (Matthew 10:39; Ref.: 16:25).
Therefore, we do not
focus on our lives.
We are those who are
willing to lose our lives for Jesus and the gospel (Mark 8:35).
We do not consider our
lives precious at all in our endeavor
to complete the task we
received from the Lord Jesus,
to testify to the good
news of God’s grace (Acts 20:24).
