Verse of the day I pray that you may have the power to comprehend, with all the saints, what is the breadth and length and height and depth and to know the love of Christ that surpasses knowledge, so that you may be filled with all the fullness of God. - Ephesians 3:18-19 Voice of the day Like God’s love for us, the love we show our neighbors shouldn’t be contingent on merit, safety, efficiency, time, money, energy, or even legality. This love of Jesus surpasses all knowledge, and will seem illogical by most standards. - Stephen Mattson, “The Illogical Love of Jesus” Prayer of the day God, fill us with Christ’s limitless love so we may love others without conditions or fear.
