Prayer for Strengthened Love

In Ephesians 3, Paul wrote:

14 For this reason I bow my knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,fn 15 from whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named, 16 that He would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with might through His Spirit in the inner man, 17 that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; that you, being rooted and grounded in love, 18 may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the width and length and depth and height— 19 to know the love of Christ which passes knowledge; that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.

20 Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us, 21 to Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen.

 

This is my prayer as well.  Let us all be rooted and grounded in Love.  When we are rooted and grounded, our foundation is sure.  Love provides the strength to see the positive in our tests and trials.  Love is the basis of our individual callings.  Love designed our gifts according to the need.  Love rallies the resources each of us needs to carry out our individual callings.  Love provides the patience and steadfastness as we mature in this time of Pentecost.  Let us be filled with the fullness of Our Heavenly Father.

I say “Amen” to Paul’s prayer!
