Grace, Peace, Love - Abounds
Feb 25th, 2008 by Amanda
I listened to the next sermon in Rob Bell’s Phillippian series.
Wow.
I must have read this book a hundred times. But I never saw this prayer for what it is:
And this is my prayer: that your love may abound more and more in knowledge and depth of insight, so that you may be able to discern what is best and may be pure and blameless until the day of Christ, filled with the fruit of righteousness that comes through Jesus Christ—to the glory and praise of God.
That is a powerful prayer right there. I couldn’t possibly do it justice, so I urge you to listen to the sermon yourselves.
It’s worth it.
What I need to figure out is how to actually live my life so that grace, peace, and love abound. So that everything I do flows from them. Right now, that just isn’t the case.
My life is like a resounding gong or clanging cymbal.
What a great prayer!
