Anxious To Matter
Mark 10:32-45
We want a life that means something. We want a life that makes a difference. The question is, “How?” How do we live a life that matters?

Jesus tells them, You will indeed suffer, because that’s the price of greatness. That’s the cost of living a life that matters.
It is absolutely necessary if we want to live lives that matter. 1st we must sacrifice. 2nd we must suffer; and 3rd if we want to live lives that matter, we must…
SUBMIT TO GOD’S WILL.
Would I be willing to serve God faithfully and raise up my children to serve him, even if I never achieved any recognition?
Whatever role God has assigned to you, in His strength, carry out that role to the best of your ability. For if we want to live a life that matters.
