Lamb of God (I offer me) - Nicole C Mullen

What do we give a King? What could I bring that would be worth anything to Jesus?  We can’t buy or work our way in. The price that was paid has already been done. We are worth everything to our Savior, Jesus Christ!

Do you feel your worth? I pray you do, and stop your searching. I know you’ve heard this song every Christmas.. “Oh Holy night” I want to ask you, have you experienced it yet, deep in your heart and soul? Well there is a few verses I want to point out to you, and really think about (Selah).  

Have you fallen on your knees… have you heard the angel voices… have you experienced that night so divine? Now think about this next verse… “Till He appeared, and the Soul Felt It's Worth!” That’s where it’s all at!  Jesus, and only Jesus, is your answer to all you are worth. What more could He do. He came for us, and died for us. It’s not as deep as people try to make it. Don’t you want to bring Him all of you? That is the gift He is waiting for.

So go ahead,  send up a prayer, and ask Jesus….

“Oh Lamb of God, Oh Prince of Peace, what do I have to offer thee?”

He will answer you, and you will see, the most precious gift to Jesus is your heart. I know “The Little Drummer Boy” is just a story, and a song, but you gotta love it. To me it represents that we all have nothing to bring, and we are all poor boys too. So when we go forward, like the little drummer boy to see our Savior, all we can bring is the beat of our desperate hearts… “Pa, rum, pum, pum, pum.”

Some years ago I gave all I could give to my Savior, and that was my heart. It’s all He ever wanted. Not my perfection, or thinking I could do anything to gain His love. He wanted my heart, so He could show me what it is to live not under conditions, "we have been released from the law..." (Romans 7:6).  

Under Grace freely given to all.

So wrap up all your old self in your heart, and give it to Jesus. He will free you to serve out of love and gratitude for all He’s done. This is living “in the new way of the Spirit.”

Don’t try to reach God by keeping a set of rules. Jesus came to us to make our way to God. If you spend time with Jesus every day, you can’t help but become more, and more, like Him. He will show you, and turn you away from your own performance, to put your faith in Him, and His sacrifice for us.

God’s love for us is not conditional. Until you stop living to try and get God’s approval, you are not truly living under grace, "For it is by grace you have been saved..." (Ephesians 2:8).

So take hold of Jesus and live. We really have nothing to offer Jesus, but ourselves.

“Oh come let us adore Him.” May Jesus become the music to your heart all year through.
