[QT 1]

The greatest characteristics of Apostle Paul's ministry were humility and mercy. There were many churches that Paul planted, but he never boasted about them and always gave the glory to the Lord. Also, Paul served the flock, the saints, with tears. This shows that he ministered with the heart of a shepherd who pities sinners, just like a shepherd who leads sheep when they go their own way. It was the heart of Jesus who came to earth and died on the cross because God was incarnated to carried of our sins and to forgive our sins. Like the apostle Paul, who had the heart of Jesus, the good shepherd, and served the saints with humility and mercy, I pray that I will always become a pastor who never loses the Lord's heart, and I will minister with the Lord, looking at the Lord who lives in me. 

[QT 2]

Many people live a meaningless life, entangled in the problem of eating and living. Paul said that he values the mission he received from God more than his life. Like Paul, I ponder whether I have really found something in life worth giving my life for. Jesus said, "Do not work for food that spoils, but for food that endures to eternal life" (John 6:27). I will not waste strength, time, and material for things of the earth, things that perish, and things that are visible. I will focus at the things above, the things that are incorruptible and invisible. So, I earnestly pray to the Lord and make up my mind that the rest of my life will be the one I run toward without thinking even my life as precious in the slightest for the mission I received from the Lord Jesus, that is, to testify the gospel of God's grace.
