(the above image came from Imagevine)"The Lord your God is with you, He is mighty to save. He will take great delight in you, he will quiet you with His love, He will rejoice over you with singing." Zephaniah 3:17.
Isn't that a glorious promise? The Lord is with us....no matter what journey of faith we are on....the mighty, all-powerful One is with us! Glory!
Amazingly, He takes great delight in us....are we taking great delight in Him daily?
He will quiet you with His love...this speaks to this mother's heart. I had a moment Sunday evening and Monday morning where I just felt like my heart was going to come out of my chest because it was so overcome by the enormity of what we are facing for our precious daughter. My emotions were raw and I just had that feeling that I couldn't get myself together....but then He came and quieted my heart with His love....incredible!
I love the last part of this verse, "he will rejoice over you with singing." The One who formed this world and everything in it, the One who knows each star and calls them by name, the One who numbers the very hairs on your head, who knows your deepest desires and longings, rejoices over us....us....that is almost too incredible to comprehend. He rejoices over us with singing. That just makes me want to praise Him even more today.
What a mighty, mighty God we serve!
He is mighty to save....a wretch like me....and you....and He rejoices over us with singing.

I love the last part of that verse too! I am reminded of that after a long day and my girls are sleeping peacefully. He is singing over them at that very moment and he is singing over me as well!

ReplyDeleteI love this verse! One of the CDs I've come to love (Glory Revealed) has this verse set to song!
ReplyDeleteKristi,
ReplyDeleteThank you for visiting my little blog today with words of encouragement. I am in awe of the community of believers in blog land...and the sweet friendships that form.
I am humbled that you would even take a moment to bring the Lord's thoughts to me and my little "situation" that just pales in comparison to what you are up against in your life.
I will pray for YOU...and your family...and your sweet daughter. My heart is so with you.
Thanks again for contacting me.
Blessings~
Kathryn
Can you imagine how anyone faces these kinds of trials without God?

Still praying.
