A Living Sacrifice

Lord, You are a Living Sacrifice - from the moment You were conceived in the womb of the Blessed Virgin, Mary. Before You were conceived, You were a Living Sacrifice. This is who You are. This is who You were. This is who You always will be. For You are Love. What is love, but a complete giving of self.


Our world often only sees God's power. I've heard people say (myself included), "I wish I could be like God, then I would be powerful and do whatever I want." It is true that God is all powerful. But, does He do whatever He wants? Yes. What is it that God wants : He sends His only begotten Son as a Sacrifice for our sins, to save us from death and give us Eternal Life.


Lord, help us. Please transform our selfishness by Your love. By Your love, open our eyes to see, our ears to hear, our hearts to love. Deepen our love for You. And then, out of love for You, help us to live a sacrificial life and be a living sacrifice, just like You.


Romans 12:1

"I appeal to you, therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship."
