There is nothing we can do to gain the favour of God for we have it already. We are His joy, the apple of His eye. It is not possible for Him to love us any more than He does already! The knowledge of that unfailing, uncompromising and unconditional love should drive us forward. We do not need to act to please God but our thankfulness should cause us to act, to love, to give, to care, to help, to forgive, to pray, to serve…
Amen
