Lenten Reflection - March 31, 2012

At that time I will change the speech of the peoples to a pure speech, that all of them may call upon the name of the Lord and serve him with one accord.
Zephaniah 3:9


Zephaniah speaks of a healing for God's people in this verse. This follows Zephaniah warning the people of dire consequences that would come to Judah if the people did not change their ways. To me, this verse tells the people that when they change from their ways to choose to follow God that God will continue the change by helping them to speak to God from their heart and that God's followers will be united.

We should choose to follow God's call and know that while we may be broken, he can heal us and make us perfect in God's eye. We, as God's followers, should join together to praise and serve the Lord.
