From "Two Nissan" by Rabbi Chaim A Weinberg
From Hamodia Magazine March 17th,2010
In this week's Parashah, Vayikra, we read, "Adam Ki yakriv,"... when one person brings a korban-which includes sacrificing immediate gratification (it would be so gesmak to share a tidbit of personal or communal news in shul!)- it generates a trememdous tidal wive of Teshuvah and Kapparah not only for himself but for the entire klal. This is apparent form the last half of the passuk, which is expressed in the plural: "takrivu es korbanchem." meaning, in essence, that all of Klal Yisrael benefits, as if that had brought a collective korban to Hashem.
Delaying immediate gratification for a higher goal is a very difficult, but rewarding thing to do. At fist it seems insurmountable, but once you begin to practice doing it, it is possible.
