Due to an insane amount of trouble with our internet access over the last week, very little blogging or web surfing or emailing has occured.  My apologies.

Anyway…I’m reading in the Old Testament these days – no specific reason, just landed there in the “minor prophets” and started reading.  I read Zephaniah 3:17 this morning and was reminded of an old song we use to sing in my college fellowship  and what a great verse this is:

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.”

It’s hard for me to imagine a God who rejoices with singing over his people.  He delights in us like we delight over our kids.
