What's Your Favorite Bible Verse?
What is your favorite Bible verse? Do you have just one!? Zephaniah 3:17 is my all time favorite. “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.” I can still remember being a student at Concordia University, St Paul and reading this verse and realizing how much at that time, I needed to hear it. The fact that God would delight in me….I was a mess! I was struggling with all my classes and wondering if I was truly being called to be a church worker…and this verse says God delights in me. He did then, and He still does today. But then it also said God is with you. I needed to hear that….with my insecurities, knowing that God was with me no matter what was a comfort. He quiets with His love and rejoices by singing….this is God. This is a verse that God revealed to me at just right time and to this day, I treasure this verse. So what is your favorite Bible verse and why?
