The Sacrifice of Thanksgiving

The service of heart and life is the one thing which the Lord desires. The elaborate ritual or the costly gift can not take the place of personal consecration. The Lord’s entreaty is, “Son, give me thine heart.” True service and true worship are inseparable. “Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve.” At the true altar of worship, praise and thanksgiving are offered unto God in the name of Jesus. “Offer unto God the sacrifice of thanksgiving; and pay thy vows unto the Most High.” “Whoso offereth the sacrifice of thanksgiving glorifieth me; and prepareth a way that I may show him the salvation of God.” “Through him then let us offer up a sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of lips which make confession to his name.”
