"With what shall I come before the LORD, and bow myself before God on high? Shall I come before him with burnt offerings, with calves a year old? Will the LORD be pleased with thousands of rams, with ten thousands of rivers of oil? Shall I give my firstborn for my transgression, the fruit of my body for the sin of my soul?" He has told you, O man, what is good; and what does the LORD require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God?
There is no thing that I can offer to the LORD, God, the Almighty. No thing! But the every thing that He requires is tangible evidence of my obedience. He requires me to be just in all situations, to serve my neighbor with kindness and with love and to demonstrate humility before Him. In short, to be His Ambassador of Reconciliation in every aspect of my life.
