Serving God isn't an obligation. It's a priviledge, one given by Him and Him alone. God doesn't take church attendance. He doesn't count Hail Mary's. We aren't credited with righteousness based on mission trips or Sunday school. We are credited by grace alone, through faith alone.
We are natually born scorekeepers. We appreciate that Jesus wiped out the bad that we've done. But we still want Him to credit us for the good He's done through us.
He doesn't need us. He can do anything, any way He chooses. And He chooses, above all else, to have a relationship with us.
He paid all He possibly could to offer us this gift, and we expect a pat on the back for accepting it.
