The thoughts about what is in “it” for Jesus came to me when this verse was read during a worship service in my local fellowship. I pray that your hearts will be flooded with light so that you can understand the confident hope he has given to those he called—his holy people who are his rich and glorious inheritance (Ephesians 1:18).

Hence, the value and importance of a new mind.
