His Plan


Going Deeper…When a builder starts to build a structure, the measurements are easy to find, because he is looking at the overall floorplan. How many doors and windows the structure will have, how high the walls are going to be. It's not until he starts to add stairs, and cabinets, and inside moldings, does he have to look deeper into the blueprint to find these smaller measurements. This is where the intimacy part comes-Going Deeper.
God knows my heart. He knew me before I was born. We are saved by grace and not by works, and we will not be made complete till we are in Heaven. I have found through the years the more I look for these small measurements, look deeper into His plan, the more I have come to realize, how wide and long, how deep and high is his love for me.

Ephesians 3, 14:21 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 mighty 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, and 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. 20 Now glory be to God! By his mighty power at work within us, he is able to accomplish infinitely more than we would ever dare to ask or hope. 21 May he be given glory in the church and in Christ Jesus forever and ever through endless ages. Amen
