Today Reminder – 17 October 2016



A reminder for today
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.(Ephesians 3:14-19)

You must admit that when you read these verses you are stunned. How amazing is our God and how great is His love. How deep does that love go and how does it feel to live in fullness of life and power as it flows from God through all of us.

This weekend was our little one’s fifth birthday and believe it is something that was in much anticipation. And when the day finally arrived I have never seen that little face smile so much. It is so amazing to see how so little can make such a huge effect on a little life. He was just all smiles all day and every time we see family there is a present and this just brought that beautiful little smile back. 

Watching him made me realize how it should be when God enters our lives and how each day from there should be. I couldn’t help to think that Paul said he found joy in his troubles and challenges for he knew that when we are in the midst of our storms God is with us and what we do is for Him. I can’t help to think that we have no way of comprehending God’s love. We can never fully see how great He is not while we are limited by our earthly existence, but we can get a very good idea when we see God move and how He make us complete in Him.

So today I want to say happy birthday so that you can smile as my little boy did for you are a child of God and saved by His grace. You are in the process of being made complete so that you can live in fullness.

Lord, I pray that you will bless us with your love today and lead us on this path so that we will be able to live in fullness of life. Fill us with your power and light our way as we follow your voice. In Jesus name.

Have an awesome day dear friend of Jesus. 

Cheers
