This is the Life: Sacrifice Required
11/15/09
Dr. Phil Wilkes, Romans 12:1-2
Paul writes in these verses about fully giving yourself to Christ. He says you are to become “living sacrifices.” Whether in your personal life, in relationships or with your possessions you surrender control to Christ. You choose to live for Him instead of yourself. You put your trust in Him to take care of you instead of holding on tightly to “your stuff.” Instead your life becomes a daily offering to Christ. Christ calls you to sacrifice yourself in small ways, one decision, one relationship at a time so that you might enjoy an ever increasing intimacy with Him.
