I'm not certain I can say I've given my all to God because I'm sinful and selfish, but I can say I've given God my best but I can't explain that without ruining it by bragging, as if my filthy rags were something to brag about.

One of my favorite passages of Scripture....

Psalm 103

8 The LORD is compassionate and gracious, slow to anger, abounding in love.

9 He will not always accuse, nor will he harbor his anger forever; 10 he does not treat us as our sins deserve or repay us according to our iniquities.

11 For as high as the heavens are above the earth, so great is his love for those who fear him; 12 as far as the east is from the west, so far has he removed our transgressions from us.

13 As a father has compassion on his children, so the LORD has compassion on those who fear him; 14 for he knows how we are formed, he remembers that we are dust.
