Philippians 2:16
Holding fast to the word of life, so that in the day of Christ i may be proud that I did not run in vain or labour in vain.
We desperately grasp and hold on to to all sorts of things that promise life but deliver nothing. Instead, we should be holding fast to the thing that literally brings life - God's word. That's what Paul's looking at as some sort of measure of his ministry - not how many people are in the Philippian church, not how attractive their worship services were, not if everything was going "well" for them, but were they holdiing fast to God's word, because that is where they will find life.
