God was pleased to have all His fullness dwell in Him, and
through Him to reconcile to Himself all things. Colossians 1:19-
20
Jesus was not just “a good person”, He was more than good.
He was the personification of perfection. This breathtaking truth
is so overwhelming that we might even hesitate to approach the
Lord. But if He is your Savior, there is no barrier that can
separate you from Him. Because of this, life becomes filled with
fullness. Read Ephesians 3:17-18 again, “So that Christ may
dwell in your heart through faith. And I pray that you, being
rooted and established in love, may have power, together with
all the saints, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is
the love of Christ.” How privileged we are, as God’s children, to partake in His festival of love.

We were under great pressure far beyond our ability to endure so that we despaired of life itself. …but this happened that we might not rely on ourselves but on God.
​(2 Corinthians 1:8-9)
There are circumstances that come along that require more than you are humanly able to give. No matter how hard you try, they continue to overwhelm you. In fact, the more you work to overcome your difficulties, the more they seem to defeat you. This is an indication that the Lord is stretching you readying you to accept His power and wisdom for all you face. You see, He never meant for you to live the Christian life on your own He meant it to be more than you can imagine, so do you fear that you will not stretch far enough or be able to do all that you have been called upon to accomplish? Does honoring God with all the challenges you face feel impossible? Good. You are ready to accept the help He is so willing to provide for you. Entrust yourself fully to the Father and discover how much He can do in and through you. ​
