Like a parent, God delights to reward His children for what they have done. Randy Alcorn asserts that to want reward is not a selfish thing. He clarifies that selfishness is wanting something at the expense of another, but God's rewards are not limited, so for one person to receive ongoing rewards does not diminish the rewards available to another person. In God's system, everyone gains and no one loses. This video clip was excerpted from Randy's Eternity 101 DVD class.

Randy Alcorn points out that we are often uncomfortable about the idea of God giving us rewards. But rewards are simply what God wants to give because He delights in us and we have pleased Him. This doesn't make it about the rewards, rather it makes it about the God who gives the rewards. Yet we should gladly receive the gifts that God wants to give us.

Randy Alcorn answers the question,"Will we be satisfied with the rewards we receive in Heaven or will we be jealous of others' rewards?"
