“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 (NIV)

 Did you ever stop to think that God…rejoices…over…you?!  Take a minute to let that really sink in.  You make Him sing with great delight!  This kind of love, this celebration of who you are, is absolutely amazing!  Feel good, ladies, celebrate, God is with you, He is mighty, He will save you.  Quiet your heart, your thoughts, your emotions, your worries, your frustrations, your annoyances, and your fears.  God’s love is bigger than all of them, and has the power to make them quiet in His presence.  Know that He is with you always, rest in the knowledge that He is mighty, that He wants to save you.  Smile because Someone like that takes great delight in YOU.  Relax because He already loves you, you don’t have to earn His love.  Listen with your heart, to His song of rejoicing, written for you.
