Topic:
Sacrifice And Letting Go
Posted For The Week Of October 21, 2002
In our daily walk with God and for God, God requires we make
sacrifices. When Satan attacks us and we are in pain or when Satan
attacks us and we lose people, we must let go and sacrifice our hurt to
Him in order to heal. Letting go and sacrifice are in the same category
of yielding up our life to God's love, to His will, and to His mercy.
Even the most traumatic of circumstances in our lives must be
surrendered up or be given to God so we may heal from those
circumstances. Sacrifice is the main requirement of our Christian faith.
If you are willing to sacrifice your life for Christ's life in you, you
will be totally overwhelmed with his love.
Luke 18:29 - 30 "I tell you the truth," Jesus said to
them, "No one who has left home or wife or brothers or parents or
children for the sake of the kingdom of God will fail to receive many
times as much in this age and, in the age to come, eternal life."
(NIV)
In the Christian life, there is no way to get more without becoming
less. In the Christian life, there is no way to heal from the traumas of
life without surrendering, letting go, and sacrificing our traumas up to
Christ. When you are in pain, surrender everything you are. When you are
in pain, surrender everything you have. Give everything to God and you
will be blessed. The worst hurt in the world is not letting go of what
has been taken from you.
If these words have been a blessing to you please forward
them to a friend.
