Do I give to you what is yours?

Mark 12

Jesus told them, “Give to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s, and to God the things that are God’s.” (Mark 12:17)

“Which command is the most important of all?”
Jesus answered, “,,,

Love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength.” (Mark 12:28-30)

Summoning his disciples, he said to them, “Truly I tell you, this poor widow has put more into the treasury than all the others.

For they all gave out of their surplus, but she out of her poverty has put in everything she had—all she had to live on.” (Mrk 12:43-44)

Father, do I give to you all that is rightfully yours? Is all I am yours? Do I truly love you with all my heart, all my soul, all my mind, and all my strength?

I am not my own. I was bought with a price, the blood of your own Son. (1 Corinthians 6:19-20)

So let me honor you with my body, my possessions, with all I am, as the widow did.

If there’s anything I’m still withholding from you, show me what that is, Father.

You are worthy of my all.

In Jesus’ name, amen.
