Sacrifice

This week in Bible study we spend time thinking through SACRIFICE. 'Hardly something our culture embraces today! However, sacrifice is "part and parcel" of the Christian faith (the true one, not the one we all made up!)...There were two key points made by Beth Moore during this study:

1. "We will be selfish unless we deliberately do something about it"
2. "If we miss the sacrificial life, we will miss our calling"

LORD, help me to be a living sacrifice; to choose You over me; to choose others over me...Help me to be deliberate and committed to this. Help me not to let my SELF get in the way of who and what you have made me to be. I so need your help; this is not natural to me or easy...help me to be like you.
