May your roots go down deep into the soil of God’s marvelous love.
May you have the power to understand as all God’s people should,
how wide, how long, how high, and how deep his love really is.
EPHESIANS 3:17b-18

My love is wider than your mind—it is universal.
Reality transcending e = mc2 is greater than your ability to comprehend.
I am energy’s Source, faith’s Center of Gravity, and light’s Creator.
My love reaches out to people of all nations—not just people like you.
My love is no abstraction, it is actuality—more than an idea, it is truth.
My mercy and compassion for the undeserving extends even to you.
You cannot fathom why I care for you, but you can experience My love.

My love is longer than your lifetime—it is unending.
No force can separate you from My love—
     death’s terror, life’s trouble, demons’ distraction, today’s fear,
     tomorrow’s worry, hell’s power, height’s dizziness, sea’s chaos—
     nothing can come between us.
Believer, we are inseparable.
When you are finally free from death, you will sing of My love forever.

My love is higher than your soul—it is unlimited.
My love cancels despair with hope, and cares more than you imagine.
Infinitely beyond earnest prayers, intense hopes, and grand dreams—
     My work inside your being gives you joy too wonderful for words.
The place My heart is preparing for those who respond to My love
     is more beautiful than paintings, symphonies, or poems express.

My love is deeper than your heart—it is unfailing.
Betsie ten Boom was right—no pit is so deep, that I am not deeper still.
When you experience depression, do not lose your hope in Me.
My heart empathizes with you in your pain and problems.
My promises guide you through the maze of perplexity.
My Spirit holds you together through your darkest night.
I am your Face-healer—smile through your tears until I wipe them away.
