Hello everybody! I hope all of you had a wonderful first day back. I personally thought it was really boring, and I am not really looking forward to all the lectures and exams. haha. Oh well. Well I wanted to read from ephesians today, and so i did. The last part of this chapter was touching to me. It talks about a special kind of unity in the church. A kind of unity that allows us to see each other as children of God brought together by a unique force called love. This force is only found within the Christian body. Paul says, "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." Isn't that beautiful? I think it would be awesome to feel fully the kind of love Paul is talking about. A love that allows us to see God for who he really is. I think there is a lot to fix in me, the people of the church, and the church itself. There are many approaches to fixing them, some right and some wrong, but if we approach all things with love we can fix all things! Approaching someone we dislike and showing love, talking to somebody not out of obligation but love, praying for a meal with love, or even scorning with love can all fix the problem. And through all this we can see how tall and strong Christ really is.
