“Nothing shows our hearts like sacrifice. When we are willing not only to give from our excess, but to embrace some personal loss or disadvantage for the sake of showing generosity toward others, we say loudly and clearly…that we have a greater love than ourselves and our comforts.” GivingSacrifice Book:Habits of Grace: Enjoying Jesus through the Spiritual Disciplines Source: Habits of Grace: Enjoying Jesus through the Spiritual Disciplines
“It is the grace of God that frees a soul from selfishness and empowers not just generosity, but sacrifice. And such sacrifice God will not overlook. In faith our giving to meet others’ needs becomes an occasion for more divine grace to flood our souls.” Sacrifice Book:Habits of Grace: Enjoying Jesus through the Spiritual Disciplines Source: Habits of Grace: Enjoying Jesus through the Spiritual Disciplines
