Don't be afraid to sacrifice

DIANE STAUNTON STAPLES

Sacrifice isn't a subject we like to think about very much. Society today is much more interested in acquiring things than in giving up anything. Yet sacrifice, in its true sense, is not something to be avoided but a very positive step in our spiritual growth.

If you are reading this periodical, you're probably seeking a better understanding of God. To know God, even to begin to understand Him, is the greatest blessing any of us can have. Yet we read in the textbook of Christian Science, Science and Health by Mrs. Eddy: "A great sacrifice of material things must precede this advanced spiritual understanding." Science and Health, p. 16.
