WHAT THEN is my reward? Just this: that in my preaching I may make the gospel free of charge, not making full use of my right in the gospel. I have become all things to all men, that I might by all means save some. I do it all for the sake of the gospel, that I may share in its blessings. Do you not know that in a race all the runners compete, but only one receives the prize? So run that you may obtain it. [1Cor 9:18, 22-24]
Artist: Victor Luciano Rebuffo
