" 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. Now all glory to God, who is able, through his mighty power at work within us, to accomplish infinitely more than we might ask or think. " Éphesians 3:14-20 (New Living Translation)
To know and live God's love even in its most extensive dimensions, that is the proper to the child of God. It does not speak here about our love to us, but of the love God had for us, and has yet to each of his own. Discover that love, gives us to experiment and become a carrier and a diffuser. The one who can help us taste this love is the very one who spreads it in us because of the work of Jesus Christ.
" Now hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who was given to us. " Romans 5.5
God's love for us is so great, that he sent someone to transform us personally. This person is always at our side, it is the Holy Spirit. He is the one who both comforts us, teaches us in the truth, leads us, counsels us, strengthens us, transforms us ... He transmits to us this great love that is in the heart of the Father, manifested through the work of his son Christ Jesus.
" However, when He, the Spirit of truth, has come, He will guide you into all truth ; for He will not speak on His own authority, but whatever He hears He will speak ; and He will tell you things to come. He will glorify Me, for He will take of what is Mine and declare it to you. All things that the Father has are Mine. Therefore I said that He will take of Mine and declare it to you. " John 16.13-15
