Too many of us have a disconnect between the theology in our head and the love in our heart. That’s why we should earnestly pray for the release of divine power that will move us beyond an experience of intellectual Christianity to an actual experience of Jesus in our hearts—to a deep knowledge of Christ’s love for us, and in response, our passionate love for Christ. And we need to pray that because it doesn’t take a greater human effort to achieve it, it requires a supernatural connection between our head and heart to grasp just how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ.
A Simple Prayer to Love God More:
God, as Teresa of Avila honestly prayed, so I pray, “Oh God, I don’t love you, I don’t even want to love you, but I want to want to love you.” Create in my heart a burning desire to love you more than life itself. And lead me to an experience of divine love that surpasses knowledge and fills me with your fullness. And Lord, do it today.
