A PRAYER
For this reason
I kneel before the Father,
from whom
his whole family in heaven
and on earth derives its name.
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.
Now to him
who is able to do
immeasurably more
than all we ask or imagine,
according to his power
that is at work within us,
to him be glory in the church
and in Christ Jesus
throughout all generations,
forever and ever!
Amen.
(Ephesians 3: 14-21, Bible NIV))
