Here is a song my best friend loves. Hope you guys will like it too. Like King David who said, “I will not offer to the Lord that which cost me nothing.” Words that speak not only to giving sacrificially of our resources, but also to giving ourselves sacrificially.

I cannot come before my righteous Holy Lord
And offer to Him worldly things I do not need
And hope He's pleased
For He wants me to give, a heart that's truly His
An offering of the highest price
A servant whom, the Lord can use

I will not offer anything that costs me nothing
I'll place before Him nothing less than my very best
And if I'm called to sacrifice
It will be worthy of my Christ
I will not offer anything that costs me nothing

To serve Him is my goal, how could I withhold
Whatever's mine He's given me, it's not my own
It's His alone
Whatever He requires, it is my desire
Whatever He may need from me,
I'll pay the cost, gain or loss

I will not offer anything that costs me nothing
I'll place before Him nothing less than my very best
And if I'm called to sacrifice
It will be worthy of my Christ
I will not offer anything that costs me nothing

No one is an adult Christian, we only be called adult if we are already with our Father in Heaven; thus the growing never stops …
