Sacrifice

Sacrifice is a funny name for a blog whose purpose is to show my wife how much I love her. 

I have heard people talking about many of the good things in life involving sacrificing something - giving up one thing to get something else. I haven't felt that I have given anything of value up to be with you (I only gave up lesser, meaningless things that don't really matter, like sitting at home watching TV by myself) - and the sacrifice I hope to make as your husband is to put God and you before myself. 

But, I am pretty selfish and not great at serving God and you. My prayer today is to take one step closer to serving God, and you, before myself. Some days it feels like two steps back and one forward. Thank you for your grace and forgiveness when I am quick to anger, defensive, and selfish. You are a great wife and I am so blessed to spend life with you!
