Ephesians 3:14-21
For this reason I bow my knees before the Father, from whom every family in heaven and on earth is named, that according to the riches of his glory he may grant you to be strengthened with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith—that you, being rooted and grounded in love, may have strength to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and length and height and depth, and to know the love of Christ that surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.
Now to him who is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think, according to the power at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, forever and ever. Amen. (ESV)
by Patrick London
Bowing my knees would suggest to someone that I cannot go on without help. Some people seek help and bow their knees to the wrong things and for the wrong reasons. They do not understand that God sent his son, our Lord Jesus Christ, to die for our sins. Jesus said, “I will send another comforter” Why? Because he loves us. We must come to know and embrace that love that he has for us. Will you?
