God values all of the gifts we bring Him, at least the honest and sincere gifts. I believe that this includes gifts of praise and thanksgiving, service, and material offerings.
Maybe God accepts gifts, not just by acceptance or rejection? Maybe they are accepted by degrees?
What if the gift is acceptable to God in the measure of character and attitude in which the one who offers to God?
If this is true, wouldn't we need to postpone giving to God until right relationships are established with others???
Could neglecting this truth found in Matthew 5 be the explanation of the barrenness of our worship?
I suppose that if our worship is not focused, full and free, then we need to evaluate all our relationships.
True worship so satisfies the worshipper that they do not have to look and yearn for man-made substitutes.
