I Get It

Okay, I get it. Have you ever considered the sacrifices made by others? I am guilty of being selfish and wake up finally to the reality and say “I get it”. This past couple of weeks I have posted several messages similar so since it is now Christmas eve why not stay on track? I believe we get so focused on ourselves that we totally overlook others. Before the Prince of Peace, we would sacrifice poor creatures to restore us to good favor but that was all temporary. It took His ultimate sacrifice to make it permanent. I think when we sacrifice just a little of ourselves not only does it feel good but does wonders for our souls. The other day several of us from church got together with a few more fellow servers to make and serve 152 dinners to three groups of seniors. It felt good! If we take our eyes off ourselves and give to others, we have instant clarity of purpose. In Hebrews 10:5-10, sacrifices of old involved total commitment of poor defenseless creatures for our sins. Not much sacrifice if you ask me! Then the Prince of Peace came along to offer himself as a permanent sacrifice. He was totally committed so why can’t we be more committed in service to him? It is easy and we start by looking to others. Listen to my previous audio messages on “How Do We” and “Same O, Same O”then continue below.  T
