Intentional sacrifice

Make thankfulness your sacrifice to God, and keep the vows you made to the Most High. (Psalms 50:14 NLT)

Lord we come to you in prayer often and ask for things in return believing the flood gates of heaven will always pour down good fortune, but I know you don't work that way and I thank God you don't. How easy it would be to be handed everything and always expect that all our prayers are answered....the truth is that you know that would never build a lasting relationship with you, if everything was given so easily. Lord I am not talking about your grace because this is freely given but I am talking about our daily struggles in life that build character and draw us closer to you! I pray for these types of sacrifices that date me nearer and deeper
