Given not earned...

My prayer:

I am blessed and thankful Lord. I truly thank you for my life God. Not just in a casual, thank you for giving me life in general, but THANK YOU for giving me THIS life, the one I am living right now. Thank you for giving me the desires of my heart God. You are amazing and I love you SO MUCH!

What God Said Tonight:

A cost is always owed but it is not always owed by you. 

When a present is given, someone pays for the gift, but it is not the one who receives it. The Kingdom of God is like a present. It is paid for but you did not buy it. It is offered but you cannot just take it. 

I have chosen you my child to be a part of my Kingdom. I paid the price that you could come. I paid the price that you might live in health. I paid the price for your salvation. You are my child and I have paid for you to have all the best of this world and the next. 

I don't expect you to pay for it. For you to offer or to think you could pay for it is almost insulting. You do not get blessed because you have done something right. Your blessings are not a result of your good behavior. Your blessings, paid for by me, are a gift given by me from my love for you. 

I love you and I want you to have the best life. I have told you some things you can do that will help you have the best life. But, doing those things does not earn you a blessing. Doing those tings does not pay for your salvation. It is paid for, it is finished. 

I love you sweet child and the best thing you can do for me now is to enjoy all that I have given you, all that I have paid for so you can have it.
