Giving God the leftovers of our lives speaks volumes about His true worth to us.
There are times when God requires something really important to get His work done. He'll ask us to give up our natural instincts to seek revenge so that we can communicate His forgiving love by forgiving our enemies. He may call us to sacrifice portions of our time or money or comforts to advance His cause. Or He may require us to allow our sons and daughters to go to a far-off land to tell others about His saving love. the way we respond to what He requires says volumes about how we really feel about him.
Anyone can offer the leftovers. Only those who love God more than anything else will serve up the very best for Him.
