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 o life and power that comes from God.  Ephesians 3:18-19Do you remember jumping rope or playing a game and you talk about inside out?  But everywhere you look, there is God’s love.  All around us.  Enveloping us. We have to be blind not to see the greatness and all encompassing His Love is for us.The sweetest thought is that God’s Presence is all around us.  Recognizing and adoring his love and that we are in His Presence becomes so awesome, we want to shout, to laugh, to sing Hallelujah!  There is no place that we can hide from God.  Jeremiah 23:24 – Can anyone hide from me in a secret place? Am I not everywhere in all the heavens and earth?” says the Lord.The last phrase of verse 15, says it all!  the Creator of everything in heaven and on earth.  How can we not praise Him, how can we not love Him?  He made us, He made everything around us.  He is Love, and I love Him from the inside out.Everlasting – Your light will shine when all else fadesNever ending – Your glory goes beyond all fameAnd the cry of my heart Is to bring You praiseFrom the inside out – Lord my soul cries out  (Hillsong)Because of Christ and our faith in him, we can now come boldly and confidently into God’s presence.  So please don’t lose heart because of my trials here.  I am suffering for you, so you should feel honored.  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.  Ephesians 3:12-15
