Matthew 19:30 But many that are first shall be last; and the last shall be first.
 
When (hopefully not if ?) we get to heaven, we may be surprised at the seating arrangement around the throne of God. Most people will have never preached or sang before a large congregation, written a book or have had their names before the public. Some who are considered by men to be insignificant may well be the actual pillars in the kingdom of God. Such as:
  • The one who enters into his/her closet in prayer as opposed to the one who prays for public effect and display (Matthew 6:5-6).
  • The one who gives from need rather than the one who gives from abundance (Luke 21:3).
  • The one who gives in simplicity (Romans 12:8) expecting no return (Luke 14:14), as opposed to the one who gives to be noticed (Matthew 6:2).
  • The mentally and physically impaired who have a heart turned towards God and are often not taken seriously when they try to express their faith (Luke 14:21-24).
I'm sure that you can add much more to the list!
Mark 9:35 And he sat down, and called the twelve, and saith unto them, If any man desire to be first, the same shall be last of all, and servant of all.

Humor
 
A new arrival, about to enter the hospital, saw two white-coated doctors
searching through the flower beds.

"Excuse me," he said, "have you lost something?"

"No," replied one of the doctors. "We're doing a heart transplant for an IRS agent and want to find a suitable rock."

Keep Looking Up!
