One of the most impactful persons in the Bible after Jesus
Christ was Paul the Apostle. Paul wrote more than fifty percent

of redemption and resurrection, even though he was not physically present when
Jesus was crucified. Paul revealed to us the nine spiritual gifts.
Handkerchiefs and aprons from his body were used to heal the sick. He existed
at the highest value of humanity and lived at his best.

Focusing on the future enhances life’s value (Genesis 19:26, Luke 9:62)

mistakes or failures. Focus on the future, only then can the value of your life
be enhanced.
