There's no sentence that's too short in the eyes of God.

Summary

This quote suggests that in the eyes of God, the length of a sentence does not have any significance. It implies that God does not judge or place importance on the length or complexity of one's words or expressions. Rather, what matters to God is the sincerity and truthfulness conveyed through a sentence, regardless of its brevity or extensive nature. It highlights the notion that God is primarily concerned with the authenticity and heart behind our communication rather than superficial aspects like sentence length.
