Galatians 5
21 ....revellings....

I will be getting few rewards when I get to heaven. At my age, it's too late to catch up, to make up for wasted years, too full of revelry.  But what rewards I do receive will be appreciated. And, I do know the saving grace of Jesus Christ. And, that is reward enough.

More From Galatians 5
19 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these, adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,
20 Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies,
21 envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God....

Looking back, it is comforting to see a long list of sins that I did not commit.  And Jesus said,

Revelations 22
12 ....behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be...
