Giving Your Absolute Best


Can you imagine what it must have been like for the wise men when they saw Jesus? He was just a child in a stable surrounded by animals, but these wise men recognized that He was the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords; the Savior of the world.

They immediately fell on their faces to worship Him. But it’s important to note what they did next. The bible says they presented Him with gifts as part of their worship. And they didn’t just give any old thing they had; they gave Him their absolute best – costly gold, frankincense and myrrh.

When we give God our “absolute best,” be it our time, talent or resources, it‘s an important act of worship. We’re saying with our actions, “God, You mean more to me than anything. Because You’re so awesome, I want to give You everything that I am.”

It pleases Him when we come to Him with this attitude. When we draw near to Him with an open and humble heart, He draws near to us. Remember to always give Him your BEST if you want to see Him open the doors of increase in every area of your life!
