Sacrifice
September 29, 2009 — drewgreenway
As I read about sacrifice in places like Leviticus Chapter 8, a question was ringing in my mind. What do we do as believers that amounts to the type of sacrifice required in the Old Testament?
Truthfully, I don’t think there’s anything we (I) do that amounts to this. Is dropping some money in a plate really sacrifice? Is giving up my time to do something I love (playing music) really sacrifice?
I mean, these people were giving up highly valuable animals without blemish for Yahweh. I bet it took great diligence and devotion for these people to give up such a prized possession for Yahweh.
I guess I need to start thinking of what my prized possessions are and if I’d be willing to give them up.
