But I have [your full payment] and more; I have everything I need and am amply supplied, now that I have received from Epaphroditus the gifts you sent me. [They are the] fragrant odor of an offering and sacrifice which God welcomes and in which He delights.
Philippians 4:18 AMPC
Every gift, every act of grace, every time we do something sacrificially, when we do something for others no matter how small or how big...that's something God welcomes and delights in!
He knows.
And He loves it!
Because He loves you and delights in you :)
What opportunity is there today to delight God?
Lord, give me the opportunity today to bless or encourage someone in a new way for me, and Lord, give me the courage to do it.
Amen

Genesis 15.8-18.ESV But he said O Lord God , how am I to know that I shall possess it? ...When the sun had gone down and it was dark, behold, a smoking fire pot and a flaming torch passed between these pieces. On that day the Lord made a covenant with Abram... March 15 was the last day we looked at Abram's story...he was questioning God and this is God's response...sacrifices and smoke and fire and a covenant...a promise... Isn't that what we crave for sometimes? God, if only you'd just show me smoke & fire, a burning bush a sign, miracle, healing...then all my questions would disappear...all my doubts would be gone... 2moro we'll see Abram's response but I think God values our faith in spite of our questions and doubts. That we choose Him anyway #faith
