Sacrifice
Our family's on vacation, visiting friends in France. Yesterday we drove to the beaches of Normandy where the allies landed during World War II. I was in awe at the sacrifice that was made by so many to regain the world's freedom. Over 9000 American soldiers gave their lives at Normandy; most of them are buried on U.S. soil there.

David, I'd really like to see what are world would look like if sacrificing ourselves as Christ wants us to and to serve others were second nature for the majority of us...while we may think/hope that service is a priority, it's not always pretty when we take an honest in-depth look at ourselves.
I have hope though...
