Developing, growing and maturing in Christ. Learning how to walk by faith and not by sight. Revelling in the presence of the Lord. Witnessing His faithfulness. There is nothing more precious than that. Every other good thing that I value (family, friends, education, music) is an added bonus from God.
2 Corinthians 4:16-18 That is why we never give up. Though our bodies are dying, our spirits are being renewed every day. For our present troubles are small and won't last very long. Yet they produce for us a glory that vastly outweighs them and will last forever! So we don't look at the troubles we see now; rather, we fix our gaze on things that cannot be seen. For the things we see now will soon be gone, but the things we cannot see will last forever.
