I thought what I might give to god. The first thought I had was my soul, then I remembered all souls belong to god already.
Then I thought I might offer a gift of praise, then I thought that wasn’t a gift, since he has said let everything that has breath praise ye the lord.
What would be a perfect gift, for the almighty God? Since God already owns everything, including a cattle on a thousand hills.
I though I really couldn’t offer him anything, everything
I owned already belonged to him.
I thought so hard; I really would like to give God something.
I would like him to know I truly did love him. But what could
I possibly give to God, that would make a good gift?
Then it came to me, like a light out of the sky. It wasn’t what I could give, but what I could receive.
By receiving the gift God had already given, the gift of forgiveness and grace, that of his son Jesus is all God wants.
You see by receiving I am giving a gift to God, my heart!
