Sacrifice

I gladly made a small sacrifice yesterday, although I will admit that I did it with some mixed feelings. While Karen and I were in Houston visiting her father and my daughter, son-in-law and grandson, I learned that someone I had a meeting with earlier this week tested positive for Covid. I immediately took a test that was negative, as I will continue to take them over the course of the next few days. And then we immediately packed up and came home. So why did I do it? Because I love my family and especially because I want to do whatever I can not to expose my grandson Henry in the unlikely event that I test positive. So if you ever struggle just a bit to understand Jesus’ sacrifice on the cross, start there. With love. Because it is the heart of everything Jesus does.
