Hey guys! Today I thought I would talk about our sacrifice because of God's sacrifice. God  gives us freedom through Jesus as long as we commit to him. Technically we are completely free and no matter how many times we sin or screw up God still loves us and we are still considered his child, but because of God's beautiful sacrifice we should want to sacrifice what we want in this world to be the light and how people the love of Christ. For example if someone gave you the best, most expensive, better than any dream gift our natural instinct is to want and return the favor to this person, by helping them or also giving a gift. It is the same with Jesus. It is hard sometimes to grasp all the amazing things he has done for us and to truly see how much he has blessed us, especially through hard times; but if we can grasp just a little of his amazing grace then our hearts will be filled with a sense of gratitude. We then will truly desire to do whatever we can to repay him for all he has done, but it is really impossible to repay God with all he has done for us. So all we can do is lay down our humanly desires in exchange of God's desires. Roman 12:1 "Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of God's mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices,holy and pleasing to God-- this is spiritual act of worship."
