 A
pig and a chicken were walking down the road when they saw a
church sign advertising a breakfast to benefit the poor.
While discussing how they could help, the chicken had an
idea.
She turned to the pig and said: "I know, you and I should
donate a ham and egg breakfast." After some thought, the pig
replied: "For you an egg is just a contribution, but for me
a ham is a total commitment."
"I
beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that
ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable
unto God, which is your reasonable service." Romans 12:1
The Lord is interested and calling for more than just a
contribution. People generally make contributions of their
abundance when it is convenient. Serving God is not about
convenience. It is about sacrifice that comes only by
commitment and dedication to God.
Have you been contributing to the work of God with your time
and money, or have you fully consecrated yourself with a
total commitment to God and His cause? |
