sacrifice #1

sacrifice
is NOT loss…
it is choice...

a voluntary choice
to give up ourselves
on behalf of another…
just like You did, Lord

the only loss
in this transaction
is a loss of
pride
and
self-importance…
each of which are brothers of death…

so in a sense,
death is diminished
each time we make
even the slightest sacrifice
in Your Name...
for anyone...
