The world says you gain your life by getting more and more and more and more, but Jesus says, 'No, that leads to death. You get it back by giving it away and when you give it away you get it back.'
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Life is a gift, and it offers us the privilege, opportunity, and responsibility to give something back by becoming more.
No matter what we want of life we have to give up something in order to get it.
Life always kills you in the end, but first it prevents you from getting what you want.
If I don't have anything to sacrifice, I don't have anything to gain. From the Bible I have learned if you want something good, you must sacrifice.
If God has given you the world's goods in abundance, it is to help you gain those of Heaven and to be a good example of sound teaching to your sons, servants, and relatives.
You must lose everything in order to gain anything.
When you give yourself, you receive more than you give.
I am a big believer that eventually everything comes back to you. You get back what you give out.
To gain what is worth having, it may be necessary to lose everything else.
What you get is a living, what you give is a life.
