Little Gifts From God...
Maybe they just look small. They're actually huge when you open them up. Here's one He gave me a few minutes ago. Wow... talk about some powerful words.

I ought not to need reminding of this, but I'm grateful to Clarity Amid Chaos for the timely words
you cannot please God any more than you do right now. Man, that one is tough for me.
But it's true. The Bible says He loves you with a perfect love. And perfect means perfect. It can't get more perfect, because then the prior love wouldn't have been perfect. capisca?
when you embrace and dwell in the spiritual reality that God is satisfied with you because His Son dwells within you, only then will you be freed to live the life God has designed for you.
There's no doubt this is a faith trial to live in the spiritual reality of God's unconditional acceptance of you as a sinner in need of reconciliation. In a world that says screams "do more! Do it better! do it faster! do it cheaper! Do it differently! and do it two days ago!" it can be very hard to feel like God's unmerited favor rests upon you.
just remember...God's favor isn't based on you.
it's based on Him.
You can read the whole piece here. I'm going back to read it again.
