The Sacrifices that Purify

Once we have accepted Jesus and His calling on our lives, we are no longer able to choose what we would like to do.  We must lay down anything and everything that interferes with the things that He calls us to do.  The process is for us, not for Him.  He does not need us to accomplish His work.  We need Him and gain everything by setting aside those things in our lives that do not fit the purposes that He has for our lives.  Our gain is based in our sacrifices which purify us to do His work.
