Today's Offering

And thou shalt burn the whole ram upon the altar: it is a burnt offering unto the LORD: it is a sweet savour, an offering made by fire unto the LORD.

Ex 29:18 (KJV)

Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear: For our God is a consuming fire.

Heb 12:28-29 (KJV)

I found it helpful last night and today, when faced with fear and anxiety to remember that my life is an offering before God. Who I am, what I do. I am a priest and my body a temple of God. What I do is an offering whether I like it or not. (Thank you for that Norm Wakefield, spiritofelijah.com). I was encouraged to not shrink back but stride forward into the night and day that my steps would be offered freely and not with wringing of hands. A window cleaned, an errand run, a little head patted -- all offerings to be consumed by the fire of God.

"I remember," I said to myself and all was well.
