The sharing in this section is deep, profound, and so thoroughly challenging. The imagery of the sheep being slaughtered, as it relates to our Savior and to the Christian life, is a vivid reminder that there is only one way to live for God and that is the narrow way. There is no other way to live each day than to die every day by denying myself for others. In the words of the author, “To pray for faith to submit to the knife and let go of our lives.” I dearly wish and pray to live out this greatest virtue. I have come to realize that a powerful Christian life is lived out one moment at a time. It is constantly choosing Christ over myself by putting my ego to death.
