When you look out - no, further - what do you see? Do you see a limit? A place you're not supposed to go? Or do you see an invitation? Imagine if the original disciples, turned apostles, only saw one horizon: Judea, or Galilee? Turns out, Jesus had other plans for them to go further than they could have ever imagined. While this teaching isn't about those guys pushing themselves further out, it is about you seeing yourself out there, standing on that outer limit to see...more horizons.

Every (good) story has an protagonist. In other words, a hero: the person at the center of the whole thing who is transformed and comes through. The unique thing about your hero journey, however, is that in this story, as should all other of his disciples, you as Christ's follower point to him at the real Hero of the real Story. That becomes your "sacrifice" - to defer your glory and final resolution to him for others.
