How do I make a difference in this world for God?  Does my life show that I love Jesus?
I just heard a sermon that really made me think about this.  I just looked into the eyes of Jesus in a painted photgraph.  I saw His eyes, looking out at me, and in His eyes I saw all that He went through for me.  I felt Him in my soul, knowing the way He died for me, on the cross, being beaten and tormented for my salvation.  I had to ask myself, so what truly is important in this earthly life?  Do things of this world really matter?  It is only when I turn my eyes and heart away from Jesus, that I think other things are important.  If I see Jesus before me, allow Him into my heart, I will truly know what matters.
I had a conversation with a friend just now...Someone who I have spent much of my time with, who I felt was very important to me.  All of a sudden I felt a distance between us..the distance was the world.  It is said we must shed the "old self" and put on the "new self", and sometimes the new self feels very uncomfortable around things it was used to as the old self.  Yet, why does my heart break at the thought of endings?  I trust that Jesus will show me the way; show me the way to live my life for Him.
