Study Lenses

The verse centers on "send", "very", "might", "things", "concerning", "comfort", and "hearts". It is saying that the verse draws attention to "send" and "very", so its meaning should be read from those terms before moving to application.

The nearby context moves from verse 21's "And that ye may know--ye also--the things..." into verse 23's "Peace to the brethren and love with...", so "send" and "very" belong inside that flow. In Ephesians context, the local focus is grace, union with Christ, the church, and new creation.

A plain takeaway is to answer the verse's own emphasis on "send" and "very" with trust shaped by these words, not by a vague optimism outside the passage.
