Being truly loved | 3

“. . . he will quiet you with his love” Zephaniah 3.17

We often think about love in terms of passion or longing, but to be stilled by love is an extraordinary concept. The sense is that anxiety fades in a loving relationship and a deep peace takes over.

For this to happen, the love relationship must presumably be two-way, as to be quietened by love means we need to have a deep knowledge of it. To know we are loved by God is different from being told we are loved or hoping we are loved. There is a confidence in it.

One way of expressing our confidence in God’s love is to worship him and the more we do this, the more aware of his love we become. In other words, as you begin to worship the Father for his love, you are at the same time acknowledging and thanking him for it. As you step further into his love, your gratitude for it increases which in turn takes you deeper into it.

Worship God for the depth of his love for you and find yourself stilled by it.
