What Does That Look Like

 

...from each its best part
is to be dedicated.
...When you have offered
from the best of it,
           then the rest...

           Numbers 18. 29-30

When we dedicate to the LORD
  our best work and efforts,
   God multiplies the rest.
Are we worshiping Him
     with our leftovers?
When we reorder our loves,
    God reorders our lives.
God is not just in first place,
      but infiltrating all,
not even prominent,
         but preeminent.
What does that look like?
Whatever is offered to God
   and done for His glory,
even the leftovers
         bless the world,
twelve baskets overflowing.

O LORD,
Help us to live in such a way
   that You are honored
         by our every effort,
glorified in every choice,
selfless and loving
  and faithful in whatever
  You have given us to do.
You gifted us with this day.
We offer You our best
     and all the rest.
Guide us through, Almighty One.
