Do you want more love in your world?
Ephesians 3:14-19 For this reason I kneel before the Father, 15 from whom every family in heaven and on earth derives its name. 16 I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, 17 so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, 18 may have power, together with all the Lord’s holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, 19 and to know this love that surpasses knowledge —that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.
Through the Spirit’s presence with us (relationship with God), Christ dwells in our hearts through faith (we practice relationship in faith), we focus on loving God and loving people, we grow in our experience of God’s love (God gives us more than we give), and we are filled with the overflowing presence of God. Please forgive my synopsis of the text above, but I just had to simply say how important it is to receive, practice, meditate on the love of God. We must seek to love God and love people as the center of our world. We must cry out for more of Christ’s amazing grace of love to fill our world.
Friends, do you desire to be filled to all the measure of the fullness of the most loving person in creation? Then ask for it, practice it, think on it, and give thanks for every loving moment. May your life, your community, your world be filled with this love that surpasses knowledge. Love you all.
