I read this the other day, and when I did, I just let out a big spiritual and emotional breath, one filled with stress and anxiety and fear and feelings of worthlessness and hopelessness and un-forgiven-ness…and then I slowly breathed in some fresh, crisp, sweet, comforting love. What an amazing love He has for me, for you!
So…read this prayer slowly. This was written with love, and it’s meant to be received with love. Each sentence holds a richness the world could never offer. This is the kind of stuff I need to write on my heart, because it will lead my heart – God will lead our hearts.
"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. Now to Him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to His power that is at work within us, to Him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen." --Ephesians 3:16-21
