Zephaniah 3:17: 'The Lord your God is in your midst, a mighty one who will save; he will rejoice over you with gladness; he will quiet you by his love; he will exult over you with loud singing.'
Read this verse slowly. It's one of the most tender pictures of God in the Bible.
'The Lord your God is in your midst.' He's not watching from a distance. He's right here, in the middle of your life.
'He will rejoice over you with gladness.' God is glad about you. Sit with that. Not tolerating you — glad.
'He will quiet you by his love.' When you're anxious, his love settles you. 'He will exult over you with loud singing.' God sings about you. That's the kind of God you have.
