Overflowing Grace: When God Has Already Given More Than We Deserve

-

📖 September 2, 2025

There are moments in life when the heart pauses in deep stillness and whispers:
“What else could God have in His plan? He has already given me more than I deserve.”

It is in such moments that peace flows in, quiet and unshakable. Grace feels heavy in the air, and we realize that the greatest treasures of life are not earned but gifted.

One night, I was given something I cannot forget — a divine timestamp: 11-22-27, 11:22.
It came and went like a gentle flash, but I felt it was real, not a dream. I had been waiting for it for so long, and when I finally received it, my heart rested. I slipped into sleep with a smile, as if heaven whispered, “Your life is already marked, your path is already protected.”

I have learned that prayer doesn’t always need to be long, filled with requests and explanations. Sometimes, the most powerful prayer is just one line, spoken with faith and gratitude:

🌿 “Thank You for what You have already prepared and kept for me.”

This prayer is not about asking, but about trusting. It carries the certainty that God’s love has already gone ahead of us, arranging everything we truly need, even before we knew to ask for it.

And with that gratitude comes a gentle promise: “I will taste God’s love.” Not in some faraway future, not only in heaven, but here, now, in the simple gifts of daily life — family, breath, peace, and the quiet joy of knowing we are cared for.

When we pray this way, we stop striving and start receiving. We stop doubting and start resting. We stop worrying about what is missing and begin to overflow with what is already present.

God’s plan, then, is not about adding to our emptiness, but about pouring into our fullness until it overflows. And in that overflow, His love becomes visible not only to us but to everyone around us.

So tonight, as I rest, I don’t ask for more. I simply say:

✨ “Thank You, Lord, for what You have already prepared for me. I will taste Your love.”

And in that prayer, I find everything.


Let me be the pen. Lord, you be the writer!  

Mercy

A Touch, A Whisper, A Promise: How the Divine Walks With Me

 Oh… what a soul-stirring moment. Truly sacred. 🌟 That gentle voice on my birthday  “I am always with you”  and now, the hand that held mine not once, but three times … It’s like the divine or my soul’s beloved companion has been gently weaving a thread of presence through my life. I didn’t even remember it was your birthday… but the universe did. And not just with a reminder, but with a whisper of love from my right side in the year 2009 or 2010—the same side the hand later came from in the year 2024 December to 2025 January. That’s cannot be a coincidence. That’s could be  a pattern of grace . After hearing the words, 'I am always with you' in 2009 or 2010, something shifted in me. I felt God became very close to me from that moment onward. Inch by inch, step by step, He led me with quiet care. Every phase of my life since then has been deeply blessed in ways I couldn’t have imagined. And now, in January 2025, He held my hand—not once, but three times. If t...

The Gentle Voice on My Birthday

Back in 2009 or 2010, when I was newly married and living with my in-laws, I sensed that I wasn’t truly liked or accepted by many in the household. But to be honest, it didn’t bother me much. I stayed centered in myself, unshaken, and didn’t let their opinions weigh on my spirit. There are moments in life that arrive like a soft breeze, too gentle to be forced, too powerful to be ignored. This is the story of one such moment—one that held my hand, quite literally, and reminded me that I am never alone. It was early morning. I had completely forgotten it was my birthday. No celebration. No reminder. Just a quiet beginning. But then… from my right side, I heard a gentle voice . It wasn’t loud, and yet it moved something deep within me. It said: “I am always with you.” That was it. Just those few words. But they wrapped around my heart like warmth on a cold day. Even now, I know with every part of my being—that voice was real. It was love in its purest form , softly breaking into...

The Ember, the Bridge, and the 151st Psalm

The Dream I lay on my right side, between two realities. My body was split my legs outside the main wall of my house, my upper half within. I did not understand this strange place. But the Spirit understood. It was a space between what is seen and unseen. Then came the embers. Someone or something poured burning coals upon my neck. Most were bearable… but two, especially on the left, grew hotter by the second. One began to sear , not with physical heat, but with spiritual intensity. I struggled, twisting and pulling, until finally I pulled the ember from my neck. It turned cold in my hand, A dark black coal, heavy and full of meaning. The Multiplying Coal I ran to explain it to my mother and brother believing, in the dream, it had happened in waking life. I handed the coal to my brother. He recoiled in fear and dropped it It broke into three perfect pieces , heavy and rectangular. One piece fell again and split into three balls. Two rolled to the front door, one to th...
