The author would like to encourage colleagues to start evaluating the faith itself by considering several performance measures can be considered to assess how precious and valuable if the quality of life and our work before God.

Furniture or tools will be priced according to the quality of its constituent materials. Material that is more noble and expensive by itself will make it more expensive seats, the more glorious the more expensive the price increase. Two chairs with the model and the same shape will have very different price if made with different materials. The factors above can determine the value of your life before Him.
Although God loves all people, he also saw our response to His love. If we reject Him and He will not force anything because he would appreciate our free will, but if we respond with joy and provides the best, God will make us a valuable piece of furniture for the kingdom and give glory to our heavenly when we reach finish line.
Here the word of God that shows the importance of attention to quality of life and our work because we will be tested and the Lord will reveal:
"Because no one can lay any foundation other than the base that is laid, namely Jesus Christ. Whether people build on this foundation with gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay or straw, so the future work of each person will appear. Since the day the Lord will declare it, because he will appear with the fire and how to work each person will be tested by fire. "(1 Corinthians 3:11-13)
Every day of our work and the work we have been encouraged a motivation to get wages in the form of salary or income so that each day we continue to faithfully perform the work.
Same with our lives as followers of Christ, we need to pursue the truth and serve the Lord with all your heart and a clear goal of pursuing knowledge of God and fulfill His will on this earth and we need motivated to collect treasures in heaven instead of in this world.
We need to be vessels of God who are ready to set up and develop the talents God has given us with the excellent quality of work that we might become furniture Kerajaaan glorious God.
Why do authors submit that we need to check the quality of our lives as children of God?
Since this is essential in bringing us to reach the end of a perfect life and fulfill our life's purpose to glorify God and do His work for us on this earth. We have a very appropriate time to begin to evaluate ourselves as soon God will come and ask us, 'What have you done for me and my people? ". It would be very disappointing if we found the work less honorable before God. Of course you want to give the best for him and wanted to be a noble piece of furniture before Him.
Therefore, let us consider a few things that can help us consider the quality of our lives as children of God.
First, the number and quality of sheep reminded whether we have done our responsibility as shepherds for the flock God has entrusted to us.
In this case the sheep are not church members because not all of us are pastors, but to talk about the souls that are in our reach, such as friends, family, and people related to those of us who we can talk about God and serve their .
Go and make disciples of all nations, is the command of God for us. God also said to Peter, if he loved the Lord and the Lord said to Peter, to mengembalakan sheep. So God is watching how we care about the souls and how we treat our neighbor.
Second, of the talents, the Lord has entrusted to all those talents sizes different and he is our master and a servant so that was fitting for us to develop the talents that have been entrusted to us as possible. If you can sing with a sweet, how much you are singing for the glory of God.
If you are blessed by God in the material, how much the provision of material that have been made for God and neighbor? So if you're smart talk or you have many friends, have you talked about the goodness of God and the work of salvation?
Third, from the sanctity of life.
God is God's holy, no one is innocent can be near Him. Our sin is a heart and hurt us away from Him. Although we have been forgiven, the sin can disrupt our fellowship and intimacy with Him. Only the pure of heart who can see God, and God does not play games with it holiness. Please God Holiness. Then see how we live, whether we are living in holiness?
2 Timothy 2:20-21
"In the big house [ie the spiritual temple] there is not only furniture of gold and silver, but also of wood and soil; the first used for a noble purpose and last for less noble purposes. If a man cleanse himself from the case - evil, he will be home furnishings for a noble purpose, he was sanctified, was considered worthy to wear his master and is provided for every noble work. "
Fourth, keep in mind is how much love in our lives.
There are many people who feel righteous and holy life, by distancing himself from worldly things, but rather live alone and away from the public.
God told us to do good useless and sacrifice themselves but there is no love in our lives. If one has the love of God is within him. Therefore check us how much love we have to see how much sacrifice we have done for families and for others? And that especially when we are told to love God, how much sacrifice we have done for him?
The fifth is the last but is especially true because in this case if you have a high score would make other performance factors are high.
Why? Because God will enable us to fight for us if we have a close relationship and intimate with God.
Someone who thinks he can be smart and try with all their strength to overcome various problems of life with their own strength. But those who intimately with the Lord will deal with various issues of life with God and ultimately will achieve the best results in this life.
When we know God, we are not going to rely on our intelligence, but rely on the power of God, the wisdom of God and the inclusion of God. These kind of people will not take a decision with the thought of meat but he would seek the will of God and His voice and doing His will.
It is written, Cursed is people who rely on himself and God closer to people who are humble and fear him.
How many hours if you are prepared to pray, and seek shade bersaat him? How many of you describe and remember the Word of God? How will you obey the word of God?
If you feel far from God, make haste to find him with all your heart, as he can we meet. Prioritize him in your life since you woke up from tidurnu and seek first the kingdom of God and they shall be added to you.
