Ephesians
3:14-19. Matthew 11:25-30
“May the Father,
out of his infinite glory,
give you the power through
His Spirit for your hidden
self to grow strong so that
you may be strengthened
in your inner being with
power through His spirit
and that Christ may dwell
in your hearts through faith,
as you are being rooted
and grounded in love……and
to know the love of Christ
that surpasses knowledge
so that you may be filled
with all the fullness of
God”.’
(Ephesians 3:16-19.)
“Our wish, our object
and our chief preoccupation
must be to form Jesus in
ourselves, to make His spirit,
His devotion, His affections,
His desires and His disposition
lives and reign there. All
our religious exercises
should be directed to this
end. It is the work which
God has given us to do unceasingly”.
