Performing my Abrahamic Sacrifice--Round 3

I feel like a theme in my life is sacrificing something good for something that I hope will be better. This is the 3rd time in my life where I have said "I am performing my Abrahamic sacrifice, Lord please bless me!"


What's on the altar this time? DC! I am (still) sad that I left DC but I knew I had to sacrifice my good life out there for Utah. Yes, I put my friends, stable job, ward, house, roommates, and friends (I know I said it twice) on the altar for a new chapter of life in Utah that is barely unfolding. I have faith that things will work out for the best and that blessings are in store.

I know I am supposed to be here as the Spirit has told me on several occasions. I feel like Adam in Moses chapter 5 who says to the angel who asks him why he performs sacrifices with the statement: "I know not save the Lord commanded me."

I don't know all of the reasons, but I am here because God told me. For now my Abrahamic sacrifice seems like a big deal, but I am sure that in the grand scheme of life I will be able to look back with "Oh, I am so glad I did that"as I experienced with my 2 other sacrifices in previous years. The comfort about performing any kind of sacrifice is knowing that "sacrifice brings forth the blessings of heaven."

I CAN DO HARD THINGS!
