Why are you so angry? Cain and Abel. Gave some; When we came before the Lord. What do we bring? Do we bring what's left over or the best we have? Are we committed to greatness or just good enough? How do we respond to correction? Is our worship hollow or whole? Gave Best; Giving your best to God reflects a heart captured by God. God's favor flows with obedience. Prepare your heart for worship. A heart motivated by love and reverence for God brings acceptance from God. Accepted; We all like to be accepted. So often we will go to great lengths to be accepted by people and the world standards. God desires our obedience because it brings His best to our lives. Focusing on the love of Christ tunes our spirit in harmony with Gods goodness. Knowing God personally and intimately produces a grateful heart that is pleasing to God. Dejected; Why is it we often become angry with correction from God? Could it be we're still on the throne and not God? Look at the grace of God reaching out to Cain. Look at the warning. Anger; If we let anger control us it will lead to destruction. We have power of the Holy Spirit to guide us safely back to God. Grace changes the heart form hollow to whole. Worship; Anchor yourself to the truth of God's word. Be obedient to the Bible. Submit to Him when He shows areas of correction. Surrender you life to Him each morning. Trust and rely on the Holy Spirit to guide you. Gen 4:5-7, Eph 4: 31-32.
