There is a tale of commitment between the pig and the chicken regarding their farmer’s ham and egg breakfast. In the end, the chicken makes a partial contribution, but the pig is totally committed. Humor aside, we often make limited efforts in our sacrifices and devotions. While these partial intents may pacify our consciences, the Lord desires our whole souls as an offering to Him.
Omni 1:26 And now, my beloved brethren, I would that ye should come unto Christ, who is the Holy One of Israel, and partake of his salvation, and the power of his redemption. Yea, come unto him, and offer your whole souls as an offering unto him, and continue in fasting and praying, and endure to the end; and as the Lord liveth ye will be saved.
LESSON LEARNED: Our offerings to the Lord must be complete. He devotes Himself totally to us, and likewise desires the same of us.
FEEDBACK: HOW DOES THIS RELATE TO YOUR DEDICATION IN YOUR SACRIFICES TO THE LORD?
