God's Love
Almost nineteen hundred and sixty years ago (AD62) this prayer was prayed for us. What an awesome God we serve!
When I think of the wisdom and scope of God's plan, I fall to my knees and pray to the Father, the Creator of everything in heaven and on earth. I pray that from his glorious, unlimited resources he will give you mighty inner strength through his Holy Spirit. And I pray that Christ will be more and more at home in your hearts as you trust in him. May your roots go down deep into the soil of God's marvelous love. And may you have the power to understand, as all God's people should, how wide, how long, how high, and how deep his love really is for you. May you experience the love of Christ, though it is so great you will never fully understand it. Then you would be filled with the fullness of life and power that comes only from God. Now glory be to God! By his mighty power at work within us, he is able to accomplish infinitely more than we would ever dare to ask or hope. May he be given glory in the church and in Christ Jesus forever and ever through endless ages. Amen.
Ephesians 3:14-21
Note: God's love is total. It reaches every corner of our experience.
It is wide — it covers the breadth of our own experience, and it reaches out to the whole world.
God's love is long — it continues the length of our lives.
It is high — it rises to the heights of our celebration and elation.
His love is deep — it reaches to the depths of discouragement, despair, and even death.
When you feel shut out or isolated, remember that you can never be lost to God's love.
God's love is immeasurable and inexhaustible.
