Prayer for Spiritual Strength! Ephesians 3:19-20

Good morning everyone,
As I awoke this morning, I received a phone call from my daughter Ariel (a great blessing) and we prayed about some medical tests that she is going to have later today.  Would you please keep her in your prayers?  She is going to have an ultrasound on her neck where there appears to be some lumps.  I was directed to Ephesians 3:19-20 which reads, 'and to know the love of Christ that surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.  Now to Him who is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think, according to the power at work within us.'  Wow!  Those verses are powerful because even when we don't understand what is going on around us, He does.  When we see through His eyes, how much more does He clarify what may have seemed cloudy?  If we are filled to the brim with the Holy Spirit, what happens to the overflow?  I get excited to think about the overflow being His reflection.  When we live a life according to Him, we are the seed of Hope for those that don't know Him!  To surpass knowledge means you might not understand everything that is going on and for just reason. Don't question why things are the way they are but instead ask Him to use you so others can see Him at work through you!!!  Ask Him today to allow you to be the generator of light and hope for those who are lost and need to seek the 'Power' that will save!!
Your brother in Christ,
p
