True salvation has visible fruit - This is the evidence of Jesus at work within.
All our work will be tested by fire at judgement and He will reward that which glorified Him not us.
Some looking great will have little that survives this refinement.

Luke 21:2
1 Then Jesus looked up and saw the rich putting their gifts into the treasury, 2 and He saw a poor widow put in two small copper coins. 3 “Truly I tell you,” He said, “this poor widow has put in more than all the others.… with little in the worlds eyes will do much for Him
