One offering that God desires is our brokenness and contrition.
After King David seduced Bathsheba and murdered her husband to cover it up, he threw himself on the Lord’s mercy, pleading “restore to me the joy of your salvation.”
As with David, we need to do our own shadow work. We need to take time to examine dark matters, the shadows we bury, that we shove down and suppress within ourselves. Our hurts, frustrations, unforgiveness (especially of our self), pain, loss, etc.
Most of the time we are completely unaware of our shadows. The more we ignore and suppress them, the longer we delay offering these to God for healing, the more power they will have over us, because they can suddenly appear, blindsiding our rational selves.
2 Corinthians 3:18 "So all of us who have had that veil removed can see and reflect the glory of the Lord. And the Lord—who is the Spirit—makes us more and more like him as we are changed into his glorious image."
