Chicken or a Pig?
Today, we started a new series titled, DIRECTIONS: Going wherever God leads us.
We started with Romans 12.1-2 and asked these questions:
What is true worship?
What does it mean to be a living sacrifice?
What does this look like practically in my world?
We started and ended with a fairly poignant story.
A chicken and a pig went for a walk around the farm. As they passed the farmer’s window they noticed a wonderful breakfast prepared for the farmer and his wife sitting on the breakfast table. As they peeked closer they noticed bacon and eggs on the plates.
The pig and chicken were silent for a moment as they took in the impact of what they saw. Finally, looking at the eggs and prideful of her contribution, the chicken said, “now that was a sacrifice!”
The pig looked at the bacon on the plate and finally turned to the chicken and said, “Yes, for you it is a sacrifice. But for us it is total commitment!”
We asked the question, spiritually speaking, are you a chicken or a pig?
I was just wondering, how would you answer?
