Do you feel like you are truly living a Christian life. Over the last couple of weeks I've been thinking about the amazing sacrifice Jesus made for us and how little i am willing to give up for him.
Also the incredible sacrifices Christians in other parts of the world like China make as a part of their daily lives. When i really stop and think about these sacrifices it makes my life seem pretty insignificant with the things I ask God for e.g.. the right car, help finding a better job etc.
I've also been thinking about the sacrifices I have made, and there haven't been many. In fact none that i can count as significant... Given the sacrifices Jesus Christ the son of GOD and other Christians endure what right do i have to complain when I'm given the bad job at work or even my job. I mean hey I'm working full-time at McDonald's and still in the richest 20% of the world life cant be that bad.
Given this i think it is time for all of us as Christians to give a little more and ask a little less of others, to be willing to sacrifice what we have for others and not just be Christians for the life insurance plan. This applies to everyone, especially me.
