“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!” Ephesians 3:18-19
Paul acknowledges that the love of Jesus is too great to be fully understood, yet he prays that we may experience it! The apostle is not referring to a merely intellectual understanding, but a personal, transformative relationship with the Lord Jesus.
We can only truly experience this love, through the Gospel. Christ’s love is most clearly seen in the cross. “God demonstrates His own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us!” Romans 5:8
As we meditate on Jesus’ wondrous sacrifice for our sins, we are overwhelmed by the vastness of His love. Though we may never fully comprehend it, we can rest in the assurance that His love for us is infinite. And deeper than all of our sins and shame! May His measureless love for us, lead us to a life of . . .
gratitude,
worship,
humility,
and holiness.
We shall never know the depths of Christ’s love for us, until we feel the weight of our sin, and the worth of His sin-atoning death, which delivers us from the Hell that we rightly deserve.
This unsearchable love of Jesus . . .
humbles the pride of man,
exalts the grace of God,
and calls us to a life of holiness!
