I is for Indwelling

I is for Indwelling
by Wendy Elizabeth Middleton

I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the saints, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge – that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God. 
Ephesians 3:16-19

In your inner being, that is where Christ dwells. He is the center of the Christian life, He lives inside of us, in such a way as to show Him clearly through everything we say and do. He is the vine and His firm roots support us, the branches. We know this love and this love surpasses knowledge. This love is so great we will never see the height, or the width, or the depth of it. This is a love so great that we will never know the end of it.
