The Altar of Sacrifice

True sacrifice goes beyond merely giving up something valuable – it’s fundamentally about trust, relationship, and love with God. Through Abraham’s story of being willing to sacrifice Isaac, we learn that meaningful sacrifice demonstrates complete trust in God’s plan and values Him above all else. When we struggle with sacrifice, it’s often because we love the gift more than the giver or want to maintain control. The path to meaningful sacrifice involves identifying what we’re holding back from God and intentionally laying it down at His altar.
