Focus on God’s Goodness-Love

JOHN SHIRK – Today’s Focus on God’s goodness is found in Ephesians 3:17b to 19.

“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.”

Consider the dimensions of God’s love-

God’s love is wide, stretching across the earth from the east to the west.

God’s love is long, enduring forever.

God’s love is high, extending from the heavens to the earth.

God’s love is strong and mighty to save.

And God’s love is deep, expressing compassion for us with sincerity.

Embracing God’s love every single day will encourage us to grow on that foundation and enjoy the presence of God.

The dimensions of God’s love reveal the goodness of God and is a reason to give thanks in the Year of Gratitude.
