“But I consider my life of no value to me, if only I may finish my course and complete the ministry I have received from the Lord Jesus—the ministry of testifying to the good news of God’s grace.”
In plain words: Paul says that nothing matters more to him than finishing the work Jesus gave him: telling people the good news that God offers them undeserved kindness.
What it means.
Paul said he didn’t count his life as precious compared to finishing the race and the work Jesus gave him.
Ask anything about it.
Every question gets a clear answer in seconds, and a way to live it today.
Live it today.
Name the race God gave you, and run one stretch of it today.
Pray it back.
Jesus, I want to finish the race and the work You gave me.
Carry it all day.
