Philippians 3:8 Amplified

Yes, furthermore, I count everything as loss compared to the possession of the priceless privilege 

  • the overwhelming preciousness, 
  • the surpassing worth, 
  • and supreme advantage
of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord 
and of progressively becoming more deeply and intimately acquainted with Him 

  • of perceiving 
  • and recognizing 
  • and understanding Him more fully and clearly. 
For His sake I have lost everything and consider it all to be mere rubbish (refuse, dregs), in order that I may win (gain) Christ (the Anointed One),

Don't take Jesus for granted!  Spend time with Him and enjoy His awesome presence.
