God isn’t just loving—He is love. Every characteristic we’ve explored in this meditation series stems from this profound truth:

• God is merciful because God is love.
• God is gracious because God is love.
• God is faithful because God is love.
• God is just because God is love.
• God is holy because God is love.
• God is compassionate because God is love.
• God is sovereign because God is love.

It’s why we’re closing this series with the truth that God is love—the umbrella under which all His character and actions fall.

This meditation is Ephesians 3:16-19, a beautiful prayer from Paul for the church in Ephesus that is also for us. In this prayer, Paul asks God to empower us with inner strength, to help us understand the limitless dimensions of Christ’s love, and to make us complete with the fullness of life and power that come from Him.

As you meditate on these verses, I pray you’ll be reminded that you are deeply loved by our good and loving Father. May this meditation help you grow more rooted in His love and inspire you to live in the fullness of His love today.

The entire meditation text is as follows:

Scripture: Ephesians 3:16-19, NLT

16 I pray that from his glorious, unlimited resources he will empower you with inner strength through his Spirit. 17 Then Christ will make his home in your hearts as you trust in him. Your roots will grow down into God’s love and keep you strong. 18 And may you have the power to understand, as all God’s people should, how wide, how long, how high, and how deep his love is. 19 May you experience the love of Christ, though it is too great to understand fully. Then you will be made complete with all the fullness of life and power that comes from God.
