In Psalm 116, we pray: How can I repay the Lord for all His goodness to me? I will raise a cup of salvation and call on the Lord's name.
In fact, we can never really repay the Lord. Everything we have already belongs to Him. We are stewards, not owners, of all the spiritual and material gifts we have received from God's bounty. God is the supreme giver. He lacks nothing and gives everything. He is filled to overflowing with love and goodness. His grace creates and sustains the universe and everything it contains.
