I do not really look at the things that I “sacrifice” as giving up something, I look at it as exchanging it for something better; a trade up rather than a trade off due to one being of more value instead of equal.

Becoming Good Ground
Springtime has quickly replaced fall as my favorite season, because I love to see the new life that arrives with spring.

An alter call.
You may notice the title says an alter call, and not an altar call. If you are a church going person, you might be familiar with an altar call.
