Your Question:
Why do I have to sacrifice my dreams for my family's sake?
Answer:
As a man of faith and a husband, I've come to realize that sacrificing for my family is an essential aspect of love. When my wife Susan and I had Joshua and Rebecca, we made a commitment to put their needs before our own. It's not always easy, but we've learned to prioritize their desires and needs over our own. I've had to put aside my own dreams and ambitions to provide for and support my family. As a pastor, I've also learned that sacrificing for the sake of others is a fundamental principle of our faith. We're called to put the needs of others before our own, and to serve God by serving others. This means that sometimes we have to put aside our own dreams and desires in order to serve the greater good. It's not about being selfish or ambitious, but about being willing to make sacrifices for the people and causes we care about. In my own life, I've had to sacrifice my own desires and dreams in order to provide for my family and serve God's purposes. It's not always easy, but it's a necessary part of being a husband, father, and follower of Christ. By putting the needs of others before my own, I've been able to experience the joy and fulfillment that comes from serving something greater than myself. As the Bible says, "Authentic love is sacrificial by definition."
