When we serve God, we all must give up something. Either it will be sleep (those 3:00 a.m. risings!), jobs, family, friends or other things. In order for us to have what The Lord has promised us, sacrifice is necessary. But what a wonderful promise we have from the word of God! He will not allow us to give up any of those things for His sake and not replenish them multiplied! God will not have us accuse Him of not being just. He will supply all of our needs bountifully and super abundantly. So don’t you worry about what He asks you to give up for His sake. Rest assured He has a greater blessing for you. Just make sure you are doing your part. And watch and see how miraculously He returns back to you all you surrendered for Him, only it will be but much better and much more splendid! Have a great week. Be Blessed.
Mark 10:29-30 “Truly I tell you,” Jesus replied, “no one who has left home or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or fields for Me and The Gospel 30 will fail to receive a hundred times as much in this present age: homes, brothers, sisters, mothers, children and fields—along with persecutions—and in the age to come eternal life.” (NIV)

"He has a greater blessing for us." This post does remind me of this The Promise: Experiencing God's Greatest Gift - the Holy Spirit (Understanding God Series) byTony Evans. This book serves as a great reminder to all of us that the Holy Spirit is a real thing that desires to guide our thoughts and actions toward the holiness of God.

This is really what I need to hear right now. Thank you for sharing this. I was inspired by this verse. It made me realize that sacrificing something for the Lord is necessary if we want His plans to prevail in our lives. Even though it will surely be hard to let go of these things, rest assured that they are all included in His plans for you.

Thank you for sharing this inspirational Bible quote. It's true, we must sacrifice some things that we like if we want to serve the Lord fully. True followers would go through hardships and tough times and still come out strong in faith. The Lord promised us greater things than the things of this Earth. Bless you and have a nice day.
