The Bible Reading from Ephesians 3:14-19 is from the New Living Translation: 14 When I think of the wisdom and scope of God’s plan, I fall to my knees and pray to the father, 15 the Creator of everything in heaven and on earth. 16 I pray that from his glorious, unlimited resources he will give you might inner strength through His Holy Spirit. 17 And I pray that Christ will be more and more at home in your hearts as you trust in Him. May your roots go down deep into the soil of God’s marvelous love. 18 And may you have the power to understand, as all God’s people should, how wide, how long, how high, how deep his love really is. 19 May you experience the love of Christ, though it is so great you will never fully understand it. Then you will be filled with the fullness of life and power that comes from God.
