All the Fullness of God

Ephesians 3:14–21 NIV
For this reason I kneel before the Father, from whom every family in heaven and on earth derives its name. I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the Lord’s holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God. Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen.

Can Do, Will Do

What’s your superpower?
Dave tries to do it all. Suzi tries to please everyone, especially her stern image of a heavenly father.

Hitting a Wall

Coming to the end of your own strength: failure. Health crisis. Relationship Crisis. Relationship with God crisis, which can be a very good thing....

Asking a Question

Can I do it? (The Wrong Question)
Can God do it? (The right question)

Making Space for Grace

The answer is YES, if we cooperate...
Make him our king. Let him be at home.

Being Filled

Shaun Groves- Welcome Home
Take, me, make me All You want me to be That's all I'm asking, all I'm asking Welcome to this heart of mine I've buried under prideful vines Grown to hide the mess I've made Inside of me Come decorate, Lord Open up the creaking door And walk upon the dusty floor Scrape away the guilty stains Until no sin or shame remain Spread Your love upon the walls And occupy the empty halls Until the man I am has faded No more doors are barricaded Come inside this heart of mine It's not my own Make it home Come and take this heart and make it All Your own Welcome home Take a seat, pull up a chair Forgive me for the disrepair And the souvenirs from floor to ceiling Gathered on my search for meaning Every closet's filled with clutter Messes yet to be discovered I'm overwhelmed, I understand I can't make this place all that You can I took the space that You placed in me Redecorated in shades of greed And I made sure every door stayed locked Every window blocked, and still You knocked Well- Come inside this heart of mine It's not my own Make it home Come and take this heart and make it All Your own Welcome home Take me, make me All You want me to be That's all I'm asking, all I'm asking

Living a Full Life

The only way to live a full life is to empty ourselves of all that we know hinders God’s deeper work in our lives. Pride and self-reliance can actually work against the deeper work of God. Respond to challenges, yes. But do it by responding to Grace. Always remember God is already at work. God doesn’t need you to save the day. Your superpower is full surrender to the grace and mercy of God.
