Love
Meg
“[I pray that] you, being rooted and firmly established in love, may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and width, height and depth, and to know the Messiah's love that surpasses knowledge, so you may be filled with all the fullness of God” (Ephesians 3:17b-19, HCSB).
Are you aware of the greatness of God’s love for you? Do you understand how far it stretches? It’s beyond what you or I can imagine.
I know that I often fall into the world’s traps. I start comparing myself to others and see myself as so utterly and completely unworthy. Yet God loves me. He forever draws me close to His side. And, time and again, He reminds me of His great love. He has placed me in the midst of so many amazing people. He has given me a marriage, a family, a church, and a community in which to love and be loved. As this deployment draws near, it’s nice to know that I’m surrounded by love. It’s nice to know that my Savior is looking out for me and providing the love of friends and family to see me through this rough season. His love for me is so great. He’s always provided the perfect people in my life for each season. This deployment season is no different. I trust that His love and faithfulness will continue to prevail.
What about you? How has God provided in your life? Where is His love for you most evident?
