"The Lord your God is with you, his 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." -- Zephaniah 3:17
How is it that with so many billions of people on this earth, we can sometimes feel utterly alone? We move through space and time with so many others, and have people around us so much of the time, but even when we are by ourselves, we are not alone. The beginning of this verse says "The Lord your God is with you"... when we walk with that knowledge, we can be assured and emboldened, for he is "mighty to save". The trick is to remember that we walk in God's presence and it's on us to awaken to it. Look around and identify where you see God today.
