While real sacrifice is committed to the result, it relishes the effort

Oh God, please find it within your heart to grant me a heart that looks after itself only because it has first looked after others. And help me to realize that anything less is not a heart.

Sacrifice is a noun in my vocabulary that should be a verb in my life.

Although I’m seldom aware enough to see it, the greater cost regarding that which I possess was not what I paid for it, but what someone along the way sacrificed so that I might have the opportunity to pay for it.

The only things I truly keep are those things that I give away.

Making oneself large involves intentionally making oneself small.
