Sunday often portrays as the day that we people should rest and reset. Which I firmly believed is true. In this moment of firmly believing that its a rest day it is also the day where we should be reminded that we should do the calling that our creator innately gave us and we should be willingly to do and follow.
So now, I wanna discuss what it means to offer ourselves as living sacrifices today and how this invitation complements the notion of living in the moment, not merely passively but intentionally in Christ. So stay here and let's dig into it.
A Living Sacrifice
🔥 What Does It Mean to Be a Living Sacrifice?
Offering ourselves as living sacrifices means giving God everything — our time, our thoughts, our decisions, even our daily actions.
It’s not a one-time thing. It’s a lifestyle.
Every morning we wake up, every word we say, and even in our rest, we say, “Yes, Lord.”
And honestly, it’s not always easy. It means letting go of parts of ourselves that don’t align with Him — not dying physically, but letting the old us fade, so the new us in Christ can live.
🪑 Sitting Here, Reflecting
This is me today.
I’m just sitting here… but it’s more than that. I’ve just come back to church again after being away for so long. And I cried — really cried.
I remembered the younger me — the one who sincerely served the Lord. Somewhere along the way, I drifted. But today, I’m here. I’m back in the chair. I’m back in His presence. I’m listening. I’m writing.
As per the preaching, I understand now what is the Fourth Man in Fire means and this hits me hard. I now know why it is important to really go and be on fire and serves my purposes. 🔥
She is my friend, or was my friend? What I know right now is that I am proud of her because she is being use to serve the community as a Sunday Preacher. With love and full of fire. We had a back story before, and last last day she prayed for me and made me remember who I was before. It's my turning point to go back and go church again.
Final Thoughts
I’m not perfect. I’m not trying to impress anyone.
But today, I gave Him my yes again — and that’s enough.
I’m learning how to be present, how to enjoy this moment with Him, and how to say,
“Lord, here I am. Use me. I offer myself to You.”
🙏 Thank You
If you’ve read this far, thank you.
Let’s keep encouraging each other to keep going — or to come back home, if we’ve been gone too long. ❤️
