"Don't waste your life!" by John Piper

• Love is doing what is best for someone. But making self the object of our highest affections is not best for us. It is, in fact, a lethal distraction
• The people who make a durable difference in the world are not the people who have mastered many things, but who have been mastered by one great thing
• Desire that your life count for something great! Long for your life to have eternal significance. Want this! Don't coast through life without a passion
• Fleeing from death is the shortest path to a wasted life.....Death makes visible where our treasure is
• People go deep with God when the drought comes. That is the way God designed it
• If we walk away from risk to keep ourselves safe and solvent, we will waste our lives
• Both pleasures and pain are laced with poison, ready to kill us with the diseases of pride or despair
