And he said to all, “If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me. For whoever would save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake will save it. (Luke 9:23-24 ESV)
One of the most interesting things about the Kingdom of God is paradox. Here is one of the core ones: we get real life, abundant and eternal life, when we are willing to live it for Him and not for ourselves. That is living by faith: it's not about me; it's about Him, and I can entrust my life, and my eternity to Him.
