"He that findeth his life shall lose it: and he that loseth his life for
my sake shall find it." Matthew 10:39

He is putting in contrast the life which we have here in the flesh with
the gift of eternal life which comes through faith in the Lord Jesus
Christ. It is possible that when a person comes to Christ, he may be put
to death because of his faith. This is not true in the United States
yet, but it is true in other parts of the world even in our day. A man
who loses his physical life for Christ shall find eternal life which
takes him into the presence of Christ. "We are confident, I say, and
willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the
Lord" (2Cor. 5:8).

God puts each fresh morning, each new chance of life, into our hands as
a gift to see what we will do with it. God Bless You.
