Self-Preservation or Self-Sacrifice

Jesus and Peter.  Their journey took them, together, to the beautiful Garden of Gethsemane, but from there Jesus and Peter took very separate roads.  Jesus took the road of “self-sacrifice.”  Peter took the road of “self-preservation.”

Peter’s road avoided immediate danger and had immediate benefits.  Jesus’ road had some severe potholes.  Jesus felt the tug to take Peter’s route, but His choice to ‘stay on the path’ yielded greater benefits and, let’s face it, changed the world.

As you make difficult choices and decisions this week, choose the path of self-sacrifice over the path of self-preservation.  It is not as attractive and does not yield immediate benefits.  It generally proves hard; but staying on it will strengthen your character, reap lasting rewards and change your world for the better!
