Giving up

Galatians 2:  

²⁰ I have been crucified with Christ, and it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me.

So the life I now live in the body, I live because of the faithfulness of the Son of God,

Who loved me and gave Himself for me.

Love flows from self-denial

The more we’re ready to loose

the more we surely gain

as it warms cold stony hearts

How much we give is measured

by the things we like to keep

and the intentions of the giver

leave impressions in these parts
