love
Week four reading: zephaniah 3:14-20
he will quiet you by his love
reflection and discussion questions:
-
As you read through the passage in Zephaniah, make a note or write down all the ways you notice God acting in love. What does this reveal to you about God's love for you and His people? ​
-
In vs 17, we read "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." In what ways does God's love "quiet" you? (Other translations use "renew" you)
-
Phil talked this past Sunday about how Jesus is love incarnate; "love with skin on." Read John 1. How do you see Jesus as being "love with skin on" in this passage? ​
-
Read 1 John 3:16-18. How can you be "love with skin on" to those around you (home, work, church, school, community, etc.)?
