Lord, I am grateful for your word that shows us repeatedly just how serious you are about showing us who you are and how much you love all your people and creation. Please continue to teach us that we need not fear when we know what it means to have you present. Amen.
On that day it shall be said to Jerusalem: “Do not fear, O Zion; do not let your hands grow weak. The Lord, your God, is in your midst, a warrior who gives victory; he will rejoice over you with gladness; he will renew you in his love; he will exult over you with loud singing.” [Zephaniah 3:16-17]
