Self sacrifice is a paying investment. In order to fulfill divine destiny and become great in life, a sacrificial and self-sacrificing life is a must. Jesus is a perfect example of a sacrificial and self-sacrificing life . He left his throne and glory in heaven and came down to earth to be sacrificed for the the redemption of mankind.

Everyone who became great toed the path of self sacrifice. That is why Jesus said in Matthew 19:29 "And everyone that has forsaken houses, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, shall receive an hundred fold and shall inherit eternal life.

Dear #steemitchurch, i enjoin you to imitate Christ's attributes of servant-hood, surrender and self sacrifice. In Matthew 19:27, Peter told Jesus, "we have forsaken all, and followed thee, what shall we have therefore? Jesus replied to Peter by saying Verily i say unto you, that ye which have followed me, in the regeneration when the son of man shall sit in the throne of his glory, ye shall sit upon twelve thrones Judging the twelve tribes of Israell.

What a great reward for Investing all (self sacrifice) In Jesus. If you are ready to surrender and make sacrifices to God preaching his word and making yourself to be used for the propagation of the gospel is one way to start
