“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 3:18-19 (NLT)

Heavenly Father, Your love is too great to understand; it is vaster than the universe and deeper than the deepest sea. Your love is always patient and always kind; it is long-suffering and keeps no records of wrong — Your love NEVER FAILS. (1 Cor 13:4)

Forgive me when I rely on others to fulfill my desire for love. I know only Your love can satisfy my hungry heart. Help me to fully understand Your love. Help me to experience it and taste of its sweetness. When I allow my emotions and feelings to get the best of me, remind me that I am loved. When I am feeling unworthy and unloved, reveal of how wide and how long and how high and how deep Your love is for me.

I pray for those who have never experienced the greatest gift of Your unfailing love. I pray for the empty hearts, the broken hearts, and the hardened hearts. I pray Your love would permeate the depths of their soul and would fill them with fullness of life.

I pray for this new week, Lord. I pray that You would go before me and prepare the way. Help me to feel Your presence and experience Your love and help me to share the truth of Your love with all those around me. I pray in Jesus’ name, Amen.
