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 heartsthrough 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.
Paul’s prayer for the Ephesians is not only about understanding God’s immense love through Jesus, but also about being entirely filled with it. As Christ’s love occupies more of our being, it displaces fear, anxiety, and selfishness. His love transcends all boundaries—its depth, width, height, and breadth encompass everything, empowering us as it permeates every aspect of our lives. Right now, you are loved beyond your wildest dreams. The God of the universe, who orchestrated the stars and spoke creation into being, sent His Son to demonstrate true love—He loves you so profoundly that this love cannot be contained. It spills over into every area around you. When we are grounded in God’s love, that same love flows from us, influencing how we perceive, serve, and love others.

Let it sink into your inmost being: Because He Loves You - an exhortation by Graham Cooke.
Father God, Your love is complete and lacking nothing. You are the ultimate in loving. You love so profoundly that You intentionally cover me, my family, friends, neighbors, co-workers, and everyone else with immense care and purpose. There is no accident or chance here—You love intentionally because it is who You are. Loving is what You do. Help me receive a fresh revelation of Your love, not only for me but for those around me. Help me see as You do because I want to love whom You love too. Amen.
