How Wide, Long, High & Deep!
When I think of all this, I fall to my knees and pray to the Father, the Creator of everything in heaven and on earth. I pray that from his glorious, unlimited resources he will empower you with inner strength through his Spirit. Then Christ will make his home in your hearts as you trust in him. Your roots will grow down into God’s love and keep you strong. And may you have the power to understand, as all God’s people should, how wide, how long, how high, and how deep his love is. May you experience the love of Christ, though it is too great to understand fully. Then you will be made complete with all the fullness of life and power that comes from God. Now all glory to God, who is able, through his mighty power at work within us, to accomplish infinitely more than we might ask or think. Glory to him in the church and in Christ Jesus through all generations forever and ever! Amen.

How WIDE, LONG, HIGH & DEEP! This scripture drives it home for us! We can not comprehend how much He loves us! And there is nothing (nothing) we can do to earn this love. He loves us just because He loves us!
Do good parents love their children only when they do chores? Only when they don't get in trouble at school? Only when they listen? Of course not. We don't love our kids based on merit. We love them because they are our kids!! And so it is with our heavenly Father. He loves us because we are His kids! So, don't ever feel like you should run away from Him. He's not looking to condemn you. He's looking to love on you! And we will never be able to fathom just how WIDE, LONG, HIGH & DEEP His love is for us!
