Every act of obedience, no matter how small, makes our heavenly Father proud. Every act of faith - even a faith as small as a mustard seed - puts on a smile on His face. Every sacrifice, no matter how insignificant it may seem to us, makes a difference.

...the true value of an offering isn't measured by how much we give. It's measured by how much we keep...By definition, a sacrifice must involve sacrifice...

Put your Isaac on the altar! Then, and only then, will you see what God can do. He cannot give back what you do not give up. But if you surrender yourself to Him, He will provide the ram in the thicket.

...if you do the job no one wants, you might eventually get the job everybody wants. But you have to be willing to climb the ladder, starting with the bottom rung.
