This is a place to shower in the perfection of the glorious accomplishment of God that we ourselves are. Unearned, unwarranted, unmerited by our own contributions, only 100% pure GIFT language. God's Goodness is a Gift. He isn't only "Good" to "the Good" but He is equally "Good" to all!

The Son's Breastplate
To
guard your heart is to refuse to allow yourself to let anything that
anybody says about you to shape the way you see or define your God-given
self but remaining defined by God alone in Christ! Even when behaviors
make us guilty by association, His Greater behavior already made you
wholly innocent by association. He identified with us even as we
identified with sin... And with there being no sin in Him, what's true
in Him erased whatever wasn't true about us, namely, our sins.
We now know sin isn't the truth of man, God is. Anything contrary to
Truth therefore has lost it's power to deceive you into identifying with
it. Not only are there no sins or flaws in you, but neither do your own
innocent behaviors or righteous deeds define you. Good or bad, your own
actions were completely stripped of the right to define you. You are
not by the hand of man, but by the hands of Jesus. This truth remains true
regardless of what men do with their hands. If if they crucified HIM by
hand, and He still embraced us and returned to human life, what can you
do by your own hand to top that? How can you ever change His mind? The
truth is: You can't. No one can, not even Him. His final word defines
you and alone declares you; we ourselves, along with all creation,
similarly arose from this, His declaration, and so we are Lord over
creation, having sprung from the same source though your name be more
excellent than theirs. -F
