"There must be an interchange of taking in and giving out, receiving and imparting. This links us up as laborers together with God. This is the lifework of the Christian. He that will lose his life shall find it. 6T 116.4"
"For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find it."
EGW directly quotes and applies the principle from Matthew 16:25 about losing one's life to find it, connecting it to the Christian's lifework of giving and receiving.
