Ephesians 3:16-19

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 Lord’s holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ

This week Autumn chose “How Deep the Father’s Love for Us” by Selah

Take some time and let the words wash over you and praise God for how deep His love for us truly is

Children in Sunday School are often taught the song, “Deep and Wide” which talks about a fountain flowing deep and wide. That fountain is God’s love and it is flowing deeper and wider than we can ever imagine. As a child, the song was fun to sing, but as I reflect back on it today, it is incomprehensible to know just how wide, long, high, and deep is the love of Christ, but I know that His love for me is greater than any love I have ever experienced here on earth.

As you go about your day, ask yourself, are you rooted and established in God’s love? What does that mean? If you are, how has that impacted your life? Have you gained the power to grasp how wide, long, high, and deep is the love of Christ? If you aren’t, what is standing in your way? Have you gone to Christ about this? What stops you from being rooted and established in God’s love and more importantly, what are you going to do about it?
