Repaying God

Scripture: Romans 11:35 Who has ever given to God, that God should repay him?

Observation: Sometimes when I do something for God or honor Him in some way that I’m paying him back for what He has done for me. I don’t realize there is no paying back there is nothing I can do that could pay back even a little of all He has done. It is all God’s mercy, love and grace and I was bought by the blood of Jesus. I am required to live a life totally for God, which I don’t.

Application: I need to realize that is nothing I can do to repay God, but if I do nothing at all I’m dishonoring him.

Prayer: My Lord make me useful not only because you deserve it, but that it is required of me.
