Alright, when I read through Ephesians 3 two days ago, I saw this little verse. "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." (Ephesians 3:17-19). First off, I want to say just how awesome that verse is. Hearing that verse is just amazing. But when you got through the verse, when you look at the wide and long and high and deep part, those aren't just adjectives to describe His love. Well, ok, they are. But they all have there own individual little meaning. Like, take His love is wide for example. You can take that to mean that His love covers us, all our experiences, and it covers throughout the entire world. His love is long; It is everlasting through our entire lives and even farther than that if you can imagine that. His love is high; He loves us in our moments of joy and celebration and victory. His love is deep; He loves us when we are troubles, in those funky moods, when we think we have nothing left.
When you go through all these, there's really no time left where God doesn't love us. He's always there for us, and His love never ceases. I think that's so awesome. When I hear something like that, I feel that little spark of excitement in me. It's so cool hearing stuff like that.
I hope all of you are doing great. Keep on posting guys; I love this blog, and I love seeing what all of you have to say. Thanks everyone.
