Isaiah 43:23

Isaiah 43:23. Thou hast not brought me the small cattle of thy burnt offerings; neither hast thou honoured me with thy sacrifices. I have not caused thee to serve with an offering, nor wearied thee with incense.

God has laid no tax on his people. He does not ask any hard thing of us; and yet, notwithstanding that, we have been slack in his service. His yoke is easy, and his burden is light, yet our shoulders have been unwilling to bear them.
