Praise and Adoration

Today, my reflection is whether or not I have been giving God my best.  I was reading in the first chapter of Malachi about the priests who were sacrificing imperfect animals, which led me to think of my own actions toward God.  Am I putting forth my best effort when it comes to my relationship with Jesus?  Am I taking the time and making the time to grow that relationship?  Have I set my own expectations of myself as such that I give God my best first?  I'm not sure.  I realize that Jesus' death on the cross has fulfilled the sacrificial law, so I'm not thinking about this in a legalistic way.  My thoughts are in the vein of recognizing the majesty and honor due the Lord and I am not sure that I am giving my best effort in giving God glory.  I get wrapped up in my own thoughts and my own questions, looking for where God is and discerning His will, and I forget to just put up words of praise and adoration to the One who makes my cup overflow everyday.  Spending time adoring God is something I don't do nearly enough.  I am going to make an effort to let Jesus know how much I love and adore Him.
