A million times yes!

Imagine that a sparrow could fly all the way around the world for years on end without stopping. Every time the sparrow flew over Mount Everest, she brushed her wing against the top of the mountain.When the tallest mountain in the world is worn flat from the sparrow's wing, eternity has just begun.

The sacrifices you make for Jesus in this life — whether it be your time, talents, money, or a dream career — are only sacrificed for a mere 70 years or so. But the rewards for those sacrifices last longer than our finite minds can comprehend.

Is living your life for Jesus worth it?
A million times yes!

Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal: But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal: For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also. (Matthew 6:19-21)

John Piper
"So yes, we must count the cost in order to be a disciple. The cost is total in principle and may be total in actual experience. In the end, having Jesus means gain, like Paul says: “I count everything as loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord” (Philippians 3:8).
