I had a son just 7 days before Christmas 4 years ago. The magnitude of having a little boy sets in more and more every day! But I wonder as Mary looked upon the face of her newborn baby in those quiet moments, if she grasped that she was looking into the face of an Almighty God. What a wonderful experience that must have been for her!!
As I was reading from Zephaniah this morning the Lord reminded me a day is coming soon when I too will get to see the face of the Lord - and what a wonderful experience that will be for those of us who call Him Lord of our life!
Zephaniah 3:16-17 (ESV)
On that day it shall be said to Jerusalem:
"Fear no, O Zion; let not your hands grow weak. The Lord your God is in your midst, a mighty one who will save; He will rejoice over you with gladness; He will quiet you by His love; He will exult over you with loud singing."
The rest of this chapter is incredible too - I encourage you to go & read it some time this week. As you celebrate His first coming this week - allow Him to save you, rejoice over you, quiet you and sing over you! This is where we find our peace!
