What does God say in the bible about Sacrifice? Genesis 12:1-9. As we look at the life of Abraham in the bible he was a man of faith who left everything behind when he heard the call of the Lord. He had to leave everything that he knew, a home where prosperity and sustenance were taken for granted (11:27–32), and go to an unknown land where he would have to trust in the providence of the Lord and not his own plans or family ties. As Abraham trusted the Lord blessed Him beyond what he could imagine... As this quote say, “never be afraid to trust an unknown future to a known God.” Even though, yes Abraham gave up everything he knew who his God is and that everything else did not matter because God was in control. As I get ready to head to India in 4 months I know who my God is and I fully trust Him in the calling He has placed in my life to make disciples of all nations.
Going to India for me is a privilege and more less then a sacrifice. I get the opportunity to tell people about Jesus who have never heard His name. I get to love on the broken and see God break chains of bondage that have been there for thousands of years! What more could I ask for? I get to part of the greater work that is eternal. As some of us get caught up on our jobs, money, having the latest and the greatest we tend to lose what is eternal. We need to have an eternal perspective and not a world one because when we have an eternal perspective we tend to worry less. As I see going to India as a privilege is because God has given me an eternal perspective and that helps me trust Him more in any situation.
I wanted to introduce my team of 19 people going to India with me. I am blessed beyond words to be working with such an amazing team of people who love the Lord. Here is a picture of them:
