God's Love Is Total

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, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge - that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.
Ephesians 3:20

God's love is TOTAL, says Paul. It reaches every corner of our experience. His LOVE is deep - it reaches to the depths of discouragement, despair, and even death. When you feel shut out or isolated, remember that you can never be lost to GOD'S LOVE.

The fullness of God's is fully expressed only in Christ. In union with Christ and through his Spirit, we are complete. We have all the fullness of God available to us.  We must appropriate that fullness through faith and through prayer as we daily live for him. Paul's prayer for the Ephesians is also for you. You can ask the Holy Spirit to fill every aspect of your life to the fullest.
