Last week we looked at a faith that’s more precious than gold. Today we see that the cost of our ranson from our sinful ways was paid with something far more precious than gold – the blood of Jesus.
That high cost was necessary because of our high sin.
But it has been paid. Fully. Lovingly. And because it has been, we know that now, when we cry to Him for mercy, He hears us. He listens. He accomplishes because of His love.
So, “what shall I render to the LORD for all His benefits to me?” I will respond in love. In obedience. In joy. I will respond in truth and purity as far as it is in me. I will lift up and share with others this “cup of salvation” and hold onto it as something far more precious than gold; as something I will share, but never give up!
