Psalms 116:13

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

Read in KJV Bible Reader

Psalms 116:13. I will take the cup of salvation, and call upon the name of the LORD.

"I ask, ‘What shall I render?’ and I reply, ‘I will take.’" That is what you and I also must say.

The best return for one like me,

So wretched and so poor,

Is from his gifts to draw a plea,

And ask him still for more.

You have given God all you have when you have given him your weakness, your sin, your emptiness; that is all that is truly yours; and then it is that you render to him that which he asks for, that he may put away your sin, that he may fill your emptiness and glorify himself in your weakness.
