"In Paul's first letter to the Corinthians, he encourages followers of Jesus to stand firm and let nothing move them as they serve the Lord.
When we give ourselves wholeheartedly to serving God, it isn't a guarantee that life will be easy. But when we build our lives on the solid foundation of God's Word and learn to trust Him, we will be able to stand firm when the tough times happen … and they will happen.
We also need to be mindful of spending our time and energy doing things that will last for eternity. When we serve others and give from our hearts, we are storing up treasures in Heaven that will last for eternity.

Sometimes it may seem that the things we're doing are small and inconsequential, but our efforts are not in vain. If we only rely on our own strengths and abilities, we will invariably fail. God determines how what we do for Him will affect others.
God looks at our hearts and is more concerned about our relationship with Him than anything we could accomplish. We should aim for the goal of being faithful to what God has called us to do.
