God sings over us!

Spring found a cool website, the National Association for Christian Recovery, and I get their daily meditation. I loved today's because it was about one of my very favorite scriptures!

"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)

.

"God comforts and takes joy in his children. We are like infants in his arms. God delights in us, quiets us with his love, and sings for joy over us.It may be very difficult to imagine God so full of joy over you. This image is especially difficult for people who have been abandoned physically or emotionally by parents. You may have been unwanted. You may have been criticized and rejected. You may have been abused at the hands of the people you needed most to comfort you.But we are not unwanted by God. We will not be rejected or abused by God. God delights in us. God longs to quiet our agitation and anxiety with love. God is so glad we are alive. The Creator of the Universe takes such delight in us and sings for joy!"

I know some people don't, but I take that scripture literally. I'm going to spend some time today listening and hearing (or at least FEELING) God singing over me! Wanna join me?
