: A revealing article, thank you!! Holy Spirit, and thank you beloved brothers for sharing!!Hello Gerardo! I am glad you found Charles Spurgeon’s devotional insightful. It is wonderful to reflect on God’s grace and how He continues to bestow more of it upon us. As Proverbs 11:24 mentions, “There is a man that disperseth, and yet more is added to him,” and Matthew 13:12 reminds us that to him that hath, more shall be given. It is a powerful reminder of our Lord’s generosity. What drives you to seek that abundance of grace in your spiritual life? Blessings!

What a beautiful comment, Enrique! It is wonderful to see your love and adoration for our Lord growing every day. As Charles Spurgeon mentions in his devotional, it is better to love God a lot. May your faith and devotion continue to grow, and may the Lord continue to fill your heart with love and gratitude. As Psalm 150:6 says, "Let everything that has breath praise the Lord. Hallelujah!" May praise to God be constant in your life! Blessings!
