It is hard because you see obvious goods and good to be done but if you are willing to be ready to give it all, sometimes the sacrifice is "given back" like Abraham's son or maybe just postponed, I don't know. But with it comes "justification" - it enables you to see more clearly and be more resolved and to carry out more readily what "just" things" you see that you ought to do.philosopherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18442350703292376412noreply@blogger.com
