Another version —Eph 3:16-19 I ask that out of the riches of His glory He may strengthen you with power through His Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith.

Now that is really something to know! This is the true riches of His glory! That is to truly know Him! All I can think of is BIG FAITH, which equals BIGGER LOVE! Hallelujah! Love Mel
An Example of Biblical Faith
From Bill—The kingdom of heaven suffers violence, & the violent take it by force. We have to fight & stand strong to get God’s best. Life May seem hard but we need to press on. — Matt 15:21 Leaving that place, Jesus withdrew to the district of Tyre & Sidon. 22 A Canaanite woman from that region came to Him, crying out, “Lord, Son of David, have mercy on me! My daughter is miserably possessed by a demon.”23 But Jesus did not answer a word. So His disciples came & urged Him, “Send her away, for she keeps crying out after us.”24 He answered, “I was sent only to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.” 25 The woman came & knelt before Him. “Lord, help me!” she said. 26 But Jesus replied, “It is not right to take the children’s bread & toss it to the dogs.” 27“Yes, Lord,” she said, “even the dogs eat the crumbs that fall from their master’s table.” 28“O woman,” Jesus answered, “your faith is great! Let it be done for you as you desire.” & her daughter was healed from that very hour. —There are many places in scripture that give us the same message. Persist, don’t quit, persevere, and the rewards will be great. Love Mel
