Sacrificing You

Text Box: Dear Servant, Yes, my plan is to sacrifice you. I plan to use you for my glory and kingdom’s sake. I plan to allow you to suffer for my name and to undergo many kinds of evil. You will be ridiculed, misunderstood and cast out for my name. I plan to use your gifts and abilities to show my glory. Even your sin, as repulsive as it is, will show my grace and glory for many to see. Surprised! Why should you be? Did I not sacrifice my one and only son? Did I not allow him to be used and spent on my kingdom? Did I spare him because he was my beloved from before time began? Did he not say that if you followed him, you too would suffer? I do not sacrifice you because you are not valuable. In truth, you can only sacrifice something of great value. Trash is simply thrown away with little regard, but a sacrifice costs. I sacrifice you as I did my son so that all may know that I alone am God and worthy of worship. I alone give life to all who will ask. Will I sacrifice you? Absolutely! But I will also give you a life of joy, peace, purpose, love and meaning beyond measure. Sacrificing you, I AM
