We need love

we all need love
In his monthly letter, John Eldredge recently wrote about love. Why love? Because God told him to write about that topic:
Over the past several months -- months which for me have had their fill of middle-of-the-night-spiritual trials -- I have often asked God, 'What do I pray, Lord? What do I need?' And his answer has been, My love. That my Love would fill your heart, fill you and surround you. And my response has been along the lines of 'Really?' It seems like guidance would go a long ways right now, or breakthrough, or angelic help or how about power and glory?

God seems to feel that love is far more urgent, or necessary.

I found myself drawn to Ephesians 3:14-19. . .the last sentence grabbed me: 'That you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.' Yes, that's what I want! I want to be filled with all the fullness of God!
May we all be filled with the fullness of God.
