Well it is when the early life is yielded to and spent in the service of the Lord Jesus, instead of in the service of sin. He is worthy of the best and brightest in us. How poor in comparison is anything we can render to Him. But He values what we can give and will use us for His glory and for the blessing of others. Shall we not say,
“My life, my love I give to Thee,
Thou Lamb of God who died for me;
Oh! may I ever faithful be,
My Saviour and my God!
“I’d live for Him, who died for me,
How happy then my life shall be;
I’d live for Him who died for me,
My Saviour and my Lord!”
