I think that's the key to learning how to honor God in all things (not just work). The more we look at our lives as something that extends beyond our death, the easier it becomes to make decisions that are focused on following God and our heavenly rewards rather than the pleasures of this world.

With this perspective, we can give to others and further the Kingdom of God without feeling that we're spending all OUR money - because it's all God's anyways. Not the easiest concept to take hold of at first, but just imagine what it would be like if we all were a little more focused on this thought.
