I think we may tend to take for granted and not completely appreciate Christ's sacrifice. Today I was thinking of how things like sleep deprivation can really make it a lot harder to do things you should, keep the right attitude, and stay calm with things that are angering. That particular example reminded me of how Christ was so perfect that despite His mental state He always acted perfectly. It's easy to look at the big picture and the big parts of what He did and overlook the little things (like how He handled Himself after staying up all night in anguish in the garden). Those can be some of the most practical things for us to look to. Do we act as we aight even when we don't suffer anything close to what Jesus suffered? And do we thank God for what His son really did for us? Remember that sometimes the "little" things ARE the big things.

Please pray for two catholic guys who are interested in almost daily studies with us. We need wisdom and this is a great opportunity.

Have a good week.

    Thanks for the reminder! I'm really bad when I'm tired and I really need to keep that in mind! I always say that its not ok for Lukas to be fussy even when he's tired, so why is it ok for me!? I think is was exactly what I needed to hear! And I will def. keep the study in prayer!!
