Why did Lord ask FAT for HIMSELF ? Is the Lord taking best part for Himself ?

And the priest shall burn them upon the altar: it is the food of the offering made by fire for a sweet savour: all the fat is the LORD’s. It shall be a perpetual statute for your generations throughout all your dwellings, that ye eat neither fat nor blood.
	Leviticus 3:16–17
In ancient cultures, the fat was considered to be the best part of the animal. Therefore, think of all the people throughout the centuries who read this and thought that the Lord was taking the best part for Himself, when, in reality, He was keeping men from the one part of the animal that causes clogged arteries and heart attacks. “Why must we have only one partner sexually?” we say. “I’m saving you from heartbreak, disease, and misery,” God answers. “Why must I give the tithe to You?” we question. “Because I’m protecting you from the disease of greediness,” God answers. “Why do You get the fat?” we ask. “So you won’t be,” God says. “As time goes on, and ultimately when you get to heaven, you’ll see everything I did was for your good.” Precious people, everything God does is based on love, for He is love. We might not understand this right now, but as time goes on, we’ll see a reason for everything He did in our lives, and the reason that He kept the fat for Himself. By Pastor Jon Courson
