giving our best
Sean here! been sometime since I last posted. Well anyway, during yesterday's LG I very clearly rmb what tze said about Abel and Cain, whereby in Gen 3:3 - 5 it said that God looked upon Abel's offering with favour but not on Cain's, because Abel gave the best of his firstborn flock to God, whereas Cain didn't. Few days back I was just reading in Leveticus about how offerings of animals can't be with defect etc. That got me thinking why is it that God forbid defects to be sacrificed to Him as an offering, and after a little while the answer came to me.
Because if He allowed that, I think that a lot of people would just give all their defected flocks and animals to be sacrificed. In a way,God becomes like secondary, a convenient dumping ground for their defected flocks. THAT would then be sinning, not giving our bvest for God. So when God forbade defected flocks from being sacrificed, He's actually trying to stop us from sinning. I think that was so cool. Wow, He honestly really had our best interest in mind lah.
In the same way, I just thought that in my life, did I give God the most valuable stuffs I have? Did I give Him my 100% or even more, or was it just a half-hearted effort on my part? A lot of time, I realise that I'm not honestly giving Him my 100%, I'm not exactly giving Him my EVERYTHING. More often than not, I feel like I'm compromising a lot on serving God and etc. I think that's something we have to work on la, to always be conscious that we aren't YET giving our 100% for God, and always aim to put in more effort. I honestly honestly believe that there's no such thing as giving too much, or even giving enough to or for God. But I'm gonna work on it so that I can give as much as I can consciously give, and I hope that all of you are trying to too! Probably God is frowning at me cutting corners in doing His work and etc, but hey, at least maybe if I keep trying, He'll frown less! xD
