WHAT MATTERS MOST IN THIS LIFE ?

Intro: God has been good to His people! He has given us more than we ever deserved. Think of it! He provided a means of salvation that will save the vilest sinner. He has given us so many precious promises, and He stands by every one of them.

When a person comes to Jesus for salvation, the Holy Spirit gives them spiritual gifts so that God might use them for His glory in His kingdom work, 1 Corinthians 12:7. All the spiritual gifts have their place in the work of the body of Christ. They all serve to edify the body and to glorify the Lord. We each have been gifted in a special, unique fashion by the Holy Spirit. Some gifts like tongues and healing have been blown out of proportion. Other gifts, like giving and helps have not been given nearly enough attention.
