God’s Perfection in Sacrifice VS Satan’s Perversion of Sacrifice

  God’s Perfection in Sacrifice VS Satan’s Perversion of Sacrifice By Liz King Throughout life we constantly hear about sacrifice.  We sacrifice for our families, our careers, our faith, but sacrifice is much deeper and costly than many have made it today.  Today’s world thinks sacrifice is giving up things that we want for something that we hold close to our hearts. Many true Christians understand the depth of sacrifice and that involves dying to the world and our wants and desires for something eternal, Jesus.   It may also mean getting martyred for their faith and service in Jesus.

Or how many of us have asked for something and received something other than what we asked for?  I have.   While looking for something in my closet earlier today, I saw my pound puppy from the 80’s my Dad had made by hand for me one Christmas when I was a child.   There is a story behind this stuffed animal but today God gave me a deep insight as I was cherishing the memory of this Pound Puppy,  and when I came to treasure this hand made gift.  It was a special gift, a work of art made with the love of a father,  designed especially for me.       When I was a little kid, I wanted a Pound Puppy. Pound Puppy commercials graced the TV screens of Saturday morning cartoon lineups. They even created a cartoon.  I was just like that kid on The Christmas Story dreaming of a Red Ryder BB gun....
