Offering An Expression of Thanks

Scripture Leviticus 7:12 ” `If he offers it as an expression of thankfulness, then along with this thank offering he is to offer cakes of bread made without yeast and mixed with oil, wafers made without yeast and spread with oil, and cakes of fine flour well-kneaded and mixed with oil.

Observation: How often to I make an offering of thanksgiving, even though there is so much to thank God for? I don’t make any sacrifice to God for all He has given me with a couple of minor exceptions. If I was from old testament times I would be giving sacrifices all day long, but I think what God wants is my appreciation and love given unconditionally and He deserves that and much more.

Application: My Life should be an expression of my thankfulness for all God has done for me. He is using me, a sinner to reach out to those who are hurting or lost. He has always provided for me and kept me safe, He has blessed me with the most wonderful woman as my wife and has given me good health and has protected me and most of all He has given me eternal life with Him in heaven. My heart should never stop giving Him thanks.

Prayer: My Lord I thank you with all of my heart and what you to know how much I love you. Help me show you each day and stop the distractions from all around me that I may be focused on you and the things you desire of me. I love you, please draw me closer.
