this was the verse that echoed in my heart this morning at adoration
so when I got to bible study I flipped open my bible to find it

and of all places it precedes my favorite ephesians verse?!!?

For this reason I bow my knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ
from whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named 
that He would grant you, according to the riches of His glory
to be strengthened 
with might 
through His Spirit in the inner man
that Christ may dwell in your hearts 
through faith
that you
being rooted and grounded in love
may be able to comprehend 
with all the saints 
what is the width and length and depth and height— 
to know the love of Christ 
which passes knowledge
that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.
Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all 
that we ask 
or think
according to the power that works in us
to Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen.
         ephesians 3:17-21

having done all to stand
stand therefore
       ephesians 6:14
