”Anciently sacrifice lent literally to make something or someone Holy.” Viewed as such, sacrifice is a process of becoming holy and coming to know God. Not an event or ritualistic “giving up” of things for the Lord.”
— L. Todd Budge
God is not asking us to be obedient in order to deprive us of experiences or things in life, but quite the opposite. Much like a garden needs weeding and schedules need a priority, we are given opportunities to sacrifice what we want for what our Heavenly Parents have for us! We will learn that putting in the effort will result in greater rewards than we could ever have imagined.
