The love that passes knowledge

Morning: Psalms 20, 21; Isaiah 43:1-13; Ephesians 3:14-21

Evening: Psalms 110, 116, 117; Mark 2:22-3:6

I first encountered St. Paul’s prayer in Ephesians in a hymn: “It passeth knowledge that dear love of thine.” I was 18, searching for a more satisfying and fulfilling life than wealth or materialism could offer. A friend took me to Oxford Place Chapel in Leeds, where I attended university. They sang this hymn. Hearing it that night helped kick-start my personal journey to discover the inexpressible love that creates the Cosmos. You can listen to it here: https://youtu.be/zwfnJ9Xkj18 . I am certain that the power of this love beyond knowing is what moves the Creation. My journey continues.
