Ephesians 3:17b-19

Mighty Servants of God. Worry overwhelms thoughts and emotions, clouding judgment and priorities, and stirring up anxiety and irritability. It draws a person’s focus away from God, allowing worry to replace the assurance of His presence and love. Abiding in God’s love displaces worry from the center of our hearts and minds, overshadowed by the reality the love of Christ. We are freed to experience the ongoing, overwhelming, and life-changing love that transforms even times of waiting into times of worship, trust, and love-in-action.

And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, 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, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God. – Ephesians 3:17b-19

Prayer: Lord, transform my waiting as I abide in Your love. Let Your love free me to live and lead like Jesus lead, in whose name I pray, amen.
