Poor, yet making many rich; having nothing, and yet possessing everything

2 Corinthians 6:1-10
In the time of my favor I heard you,  and in the day of salvation I helped you.” (Isaiah 49:8) Now is the time of God’s favor, now is the day of salvation.
Rather, as servants of God we commend ourselves in every way: in great endurance; in troubles, hardships and distresses;
Through glory and dishonor, bad report and good report; genuine(真正), yet regarded as impostors(騙子);
Known, yet regarded as unknown; dying, and yet we live on; beaten, and yet not killed; sorrowful, yet always rejoicing; poor, yet making many rich; having nothing, and yet possessing everything.
Why?
Through Jesus Christ, now it is the time of God's favor and the day of salvation. God will help us and listen to my prayer.
Good and bad, glory and dishonor, genuine and impostor, we served others but got bad response, God knows these. 
But for the Jesus Christ's favor, poor making many rich; having nothing and yet possessing everything. The rich in Spirit and God's grace.
How?
Rejoice and rich in Jesus Christ. God is my portion.
