For the Lord your God is living among you.  He is a mighty savior.  He will take delight in you with gladness.  With His love He will calm all of your fears.  He will rejoice over you with joyful songs.  
zephaniah 3:17 NLT



I love that.  I read it twice today.  This morning, on my own.Then, a friend posted it on facebook.
Rejoice over me...with JOYFUL songs.  How lovely.  Like thesongs my son was singing in the 
car tonight.  Joyful.  Heartfelt.  
Renew me.  Calm me.  Not with a pat on the back and a goget'em".  No.  With His love.  
Delight.  In me?  Wow.  Begrudgingly, right?  No.  With GLADNESS!!! 
He is mighty to save.  Not just from difficulties.  From fears.  From hurts.  From loneliness.  
From despair.  
What a hope message.  In peace I can lie down and sleep....for You oh God are with me.  


grace to you.
