Ultimate Sacrifice

It is good for you to remember, if you sit feeling sorry for yourself because you are not indulging in tasty pleasures at this time, that your sacrifice is not really so great when you compare it to the many sacrifices that Christ made. What you are doing is indeed a sacrifice, but it is more for self rather than for others.

Jesus Christ sacrificed for us in order that we might enjoy life to the fullest. Let us learn from the sacrifice of our Lord Jesus and remember that He has given us the power to overcome any temptation that might present itself.

Think Zone: Jesus Christ has conquered temptation and He will be with me according to His word!

1 Peter 2:21-24
21: For hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for you, leaving you an example, that ye should follow His steps:

22: who did no sin, neither was guile found in His mouth:

23: who, when He was reviled, reviled not again; when He suffered threatened not; but committed [Himself] to Him that judgeth righteously:

24: who His own self bare our sins in His body upon the tree, that we, having died unto sins, might live unto righteousness; by whose stripes ye were healed.

We should take courage knowing that we can accomplish and complete the journey of continuous sacrifice to becoming a lighter and better man or woman in this lifetime.
