God whose nature is love, instill in us a willingness to sacrifice for the sake of others, that our love might help to sustain them as your love sustains us all, through Jesus Christ our Lord, who sacrificed for us in love and so opened the way to you through the presence of the Holy Spirit. Amen. ‘Therefore, if food is a cause of their falling, I will never eat meat, so that I may not cause one of them to fall.’ – 1 Cor. 8:13
