Can we discover strength in our weakness? Sounds absurd, but unique to Christianity is the idea that someone is strongest in their lowest moments.

Most of us who call ourselves Christians do so on the basis of belief more than experience. We’ve substituted theological ideas for the experience of life; we are full of religious notions, but our great weakness is that for our hearts, there is no one there.  

-A. W. Tozer, The Divine Conquest (1950)

The universal way to experience God “with us:” is by acting in love in the manner that you see in Jesus Christ.

-Dallas Willard

May Christ live in your hearts through faith, and as a result of having strong roots in love, may you have the power to grasp love’s width and length, height and depth. And may we all know the love of Christ that is beyond knowledge so that we will be filled entirely with the fullness of God.    Ephesians 3:17-19
