"THE LOVE HASN'T DIED!"
The Reason for Singing
The Lord your God in your midst, the Mighty One, will save;
He will rejoice over you with gladness, He will quiet you with
His love, He will rejoice over you with singing.
------------Zephaniah 3:17
What a word is this! Jehovah God in the center of His people, in all the majesty of His power! This presence alone suffices to inspire us with peace and hope.
We not only have His presence, but He is engaged
upon His choice work of salvation. "He will save." Let us not fear
any danger for He is mighty to save.
Nor is this all. He abides evermore the same; He loves, He finds rest in loving, and He will not cease to love. His love gives Him joy. He even finds a theme for song in His beloved.
This is exceedingly wonderful. Jehovah Jesus sings a marriage song over His chosen bride. She is to Him His love, His joy, His rest, His song. O Lord Jesus, by Your immeasurable love to us, teach us to love You, to rejoice in You, and to sing unto You, our Life-psalm.
