Ephesians 3:14-19

A Prayer for the Ephesians

"For this reason I kneel before the Father, from whom his whole family in heaven and on earth derives its name. I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the saints, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge - that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God."

*******************************

God's love is TOTAL. It reaches every corner of our life.

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 lengh of our lives.

It is high - it rises to the eheights of our celebrationa dn elation.

His love is deep - it reahces to the depths of discouragement, despair and even death.

When you feel shut out or isolated, remember tha you can never by lost to God's love.
