As this Scripture shows, there’s only one thing you can dedicate to God – that’s your right to yourself. You can’t give God your faith & trust in Him, because it is Him who gave it to you first. (Romans 12:3) You can’t offer God your gifts & talents, for it’s only by His grace that you have them in the first place. (Romans 12:6) Neither can you hand over your very life, for without God breathing the breath of life into you at birth, you wouldn’t even be here. (Genesis 2:7) So what it comes down to is a battle of the wills over your right to yourself – yours, a selfish, self-serving will – or God’s, a divine & always perfect Will. But if to Christ you do surrender your right to yourself, it becomes an altar where your individual desires die in order that your sanctified surrender can live.
