Overflowing joy - Thoughts written on August 20.



These verses were in my reading this morning (August 20) and I was really grabbed by them.  I was struck particularly by verse 19 that says... and to know the love of Christ that SURPASSES KNOWLEDGE! (Emphasis mine).  And I have been really considering what that means and have come to believe that it is a love that surpasses intellectual knowledge.  It's a deep heart knowledge.   It's a strong soul awareness that God loves me and that is such a full-body and soul experience that I have a confidence in that love that can't be shaken.  I have a joy that can't be squelched, a fire that can't be quenched.  It's beyond my head knowledge but it's something my heart and soul understand perfectly and with that deeper understanding,  I KNOW that absolutely nothing can separate me from that love.

I just wanted to share this with you because it is exciting to see so many scriptures explained within this one passage! 

This is nothing new, I'm just newly excited!!!  My joy is overflowing and I can't hold it in so I'm sharing it with you!😃
