Love Lifted Me! Part 503

There is a chorus that reaches out to people who are sinking deep in sin. Those who are far from the peaceful shore and very deeply stained within. Even those that are sinking to rise no more. But then the Master of the sea hears their despairing cry and from the waters rescues them. The song is entitled Love Lifted Me. It goes like this:

Love lifted me, Love lifted me. When nothing else could help, Love lifted me.

Ephesians 3:14-21 expands on the message of forgiveness. 

For this cause I bow my knees unto the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, of whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named, that He would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with might by His Spirit in the inner man; that Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love, may be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height; and to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fullness of God. Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us, unto Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen.

Ask Jesus to life you up today, and then stand in the offering plate.
