Not only our work

After Leviticus 2:1-2 

We offer not only

our work to the Lord,

we are to offer

the best of our work,

not the grain

but the flour,

flour with oil

poured on it,

with frankincense

the offering becomes

a rite, a handful

taken with the oil,

burned as 

a memorial to the Lord,

pleasing in its aroma,

given from the heart.
