Sacrifice

Why is it so hard to sacrifice? Jesus gave us everything, and I am still not willing to sacrifice. I don't want to sacrifice my friends, my popularity, the things I love, my money, my status, anything. I don't understand it. Jesus saved me from death, and I want to be selfish. If someone stepped in front of bullet for you wouldn't you do anything for them? Wouldn't you go through all costs to let people know you love and appreciate the guy who died for you? Of course you would. But when it comes to Jesus, we accept what He did for us and then that's it.
We worry if we tithe then we won't have enough money to pay bills.
We don't sacrifice.
We worry about losing friends.
We don't sacrifice.
We worry about being a Jesus freak.
We don't sacrifice.

Maybe sacrifice looks something like this:
