Sacrifice
Sacrifice is “an act of giving up something valued for the sake of something else regarded as more important or worthy (Oxford Languages).” It's common today to brag about the various ways we sacrifice for our families, jobs, or dreams. Athletes can sacrifice hanging out with friends for their practice schedule. Parents might forgo a new kitchen remodel to put their kids through school. Mothers give up sleep for their children. Entrepreneurs may neglect family time to start a new business. But do we sacrifice for the sake of God?
