Not wasting our life is about living to make others glad in God. If we do, our life will be hard, our risks will be high, and our joy will be full.
“If you live gladly to make others glad in God, your life will be hard, your risks will be high, and your joy will be full. This is not a book about how to avoid a wounded life, but how to avoid a wasted life. Some of you will die in the service of Christ. That will not be a tragedy. Treasuring life above Christ is a tragedy.” –John Piper
