Here are my thoughts and highlights from Zephaniah as I continue my journey through the Bible:

  • "Seek God’s right ways. Seek a quiet and disciplined life."
  • God has set a precedence for dealing with "arrogant leaders." They’re not his favorite.
  • We accept that God is love, but we tend to forget he’s also just. "God remains righteous in her midst, untouched by the evil. He stays at it, day after day, meting out justice. At evening he’s still at it, strong as ever."
  • God is present among us. "He’ll calm you with his love."
