Mark 14 A Small Gift

October 21st, Matthew 14

       For the past year or more we have been singing this song called "Alabaster Jar." Here's the lyrics...

This alabaster jar is all I have of worth
I break it at Your feet, Lord, it's less than You deserve
You're far more beautiful, more precious than the oil
The sum of my desires and the fullness of my joy
Like You spilled Your blood, I spill my heart
As an offering to my King

Here I am, take me as an offering
Here I am, giving every heartbeat for Your glory
Take me

This time that I have left is all I have of worth
I lay it at Your feet, Lord, it's less than You deserve
And though I've little strength, and though my days are few
You gave Your life for me so I will live my life for You
Like You spilled Your blood, I spill my heart
As an offering to my King

Worthy, worthy, You are worthy, worthy is the Lord
Worthy, worthy, You are worthy, worthy is the Lord

       The lines I enjoy surround the idea of "Here's my gift, it's less than you deserve." Wouldn't it be nice to give someone a gift as big as they deserve? How impossible is that? So here I am, my life for Your glory God. Sorry it's not better, but thanks for inviting me in and loving when there isn't a sufficient return on your investment. Here's a link, give it a listen!!
