It has always been a truth that it is not only the things you do that stand against you in the court of heaven, the rebellion and falling short of what God commands. It is as much the the things ommitted, what is appropriate and right to do, that you just don't do for one reason or another. These things are as much an affront to the pure, just Absolute Love as the sins you've committed. Have you taken time to really contemplate, meditate on the goodness of God, therefore the very demand of what is right to give Him thanks. Yet, feigned or coerced thanksgiving would be thrown back, rejected, an additional affront. No, we must spend the time, and not race through the magnificent worth of God. To work up in our minds and hearts the very gratefulness that the Absolute Love deserves. This is for our good and His Glory.

Psa 107:1-3 "Oh give thanks to the LORD, for he is good, for his steadfast love endures forever! Let the redeemed of the LORD say so, whom he has redeemed from trouble and gathered in from the lands, from the east and from the west, from the north and from the south."

Maybe you have been in a place where you felt trapped, imprisoned. It was dark and you could not see a way through and you felt like giving up and dying. If you cry out to the absolute Love- He is Light and in Him is no darkness at all- He sets the captives free. If you have been there don't forget to take much time to meditate on His mercy and grace, and to give thanks for His powerful deliverance.

Psa 107:10 - 16 "Some sat in darkness and in the shadow of death, prisoners in affliction and in irons, for they had rebelled against the words of God, and spurned the counsel of the Most High. So he bowed their hearts down with hard labor; they fell down, with none to help. Then they cried to the LORD in their trouble, and he delivered them from their distress. He brought them out of darkness and the shadow of death, and burst their bonds apart. Let them thank the LORD for his steadfast love, for his wondrous works to the children of man! For he shatters the doors of bronze and cuts in two the bars of iron."

Nothing can stop or stay the the mercy of Absolute Love, He will shatter those bonds.
