You have been freely given all things through the gift of My grace. It is the gift of God to you. It costs you nothing, but it cost Me everything. I give to you freely, lavishly, abundantly all things because I love you to infinity and beyond. I loved you that much before you even knew Me because you are My creation, My workmanship, My masterpiece. When you were ungodly and still without strength, I gave you Myself. I gave you God, the One who is all in all, so that forever and ever I might show the excellent riches of My grace toward you in Christ Jesus. I breathed life into your lungs and then, when you were dead in your sins, I breathed life into your spirit and raised you up again to sit with Me in the heavenly places.
So do you get it yet? Do you see the great lengths that I will go to in order to have peace with you, in order to have you with Me, in order to make you one with Me?
In giving you this grace, I give you My pleasure, My beauty, My favor, and My joy as well as My riches, My strength, My power, and My glory. I have given you all things that pertain to life and godliness through the intimate knowledge of Me, the One who has called you by the revelation of Myself and My excellent nature. Freely you have received, freely give.
Rest in the contentment of My gracious love for you. Be still and know that I AM God! Stir up your faith to access this grace in which you stand so that you rejoice in the hope of seeing the glory of God. I will be exalted in the earth; I will be exalted in your life.
