Today’s Reflection:

that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; that you, being rooted and grounded in love, may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the
width and length and depth and height to know the love of Christ which passes knowledge; that you may be filled with all the fullness of God. Ephesians 3:17-19 NKJV

Heavenly Father, Thank You that when I am afraid I can trust in You. Even when I am surrounded by hardship, I am not crushed for You are with me and You will deliver me from all my fears and out of all my troubles. You will heal me from all my afflictions. I am perplexed but not in despair, for You are my God. I need not be afraid or dismayed for You are with me wherever I go. My heart need not be troubled for when I am persecuted You do not abandon me. I may be struck, but You will not allow me to be destroyed. You will not allow me to be tempted above what I can bear for when I’m tempted, Jesus, who was tempted in all ways like I am but did not sin, is my way of escape. He bore our sins, our griefs, our sorrows. Ground me in His love. Grant me comprehension of how deep His love is for me. In Jesus’ Name Amen
