Ephesians 3:17-19
…that you, rooted and grounded in love, may have strength to comprehend with all the holy ones what is the breadth and length and height and depth, and to know the love of Christ that surpasses knowledge, so that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.
St. Paul is trying to describe the love of Christ…a love that is so vast that it is beyond human understanding. That’s the love He has for you. It’s a love that would do anything for you…even die on a cross. For even when He had done nothing to deserve death…He continued to respond with love and forgiveness. “Father, forgive them, they know not what they do” (Luke 23:34). This is the kind of love that frees us to live in the joy of our belovedness in God. It is a boundless, unconditional Love that embraces you. It’s as close to you as the very air you breathe. Allow that Love to fill you…so that it can, in turn, be poured out for others.
