Acts 20:24
But none of these things move me; nor do I count my life dear to myself.
Paul was describing his reasons to go to Jerusalem, after being warned that it may be dangerous for him to do so. The Ephesians believers were greatly concerned for his welfare. So Paul revealed his motives and what is driving him. This has been consistent of what we know of Paul's ministry. He is not "moved" or influenced by external factors, including dangers to himself. He had one purpose which is to serve our Lord Yshua. His determination was such that he did not put his own safety as more important than his work for Yshua.
