I was recently listening to an interview on the radio where a doctor was talking about the need to think of others and not just ourselves. To help stop the spread of the flu, we may need to make choices that consider others, not just what we want to do. In the end, everyone would be better for the sacrifice!
The same is true in our spiritual lives. In order to serve God and realize the rewards that He has to offer, we may need to change the way we live. When we live for God, we are following Him and offering ourselves as living sacrifices. When we do this, we can help others to see the true potential and power of God. In the end, we will all be better by being living sacrifices and worshiping Him!
Become better by being a living sacrifice for God!
Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for all that You do in my life. Help me to be a living sacrifice for You. Through Jesus I pray, amen.
