Scripture: “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.” — Zephaniah 3:17 (ESV)
My beloved,
Come close. Lay down your striving. Stop trying to earn what I’ve already given. I love you. Not in theory. Not in some distant, impersonal way. I love you—right here, right now, completely.
I saw you before you were born. I knew every detail of your life before you ever took a breath. Nothing surprises Me. Not your pain. Not your doubt. Not even your sin. And still—I call you Beloved.
You’ve looked in mirrors that lied to you. You’ve chased approval that never filled you. You’ve listened to voices that said you were too broken, too much, or not enough.
But here is My truth:
You are not forgotten.
You are not invisible.
You are not disqualified.
I rejoice over you with gladness.
I quiet your anxious heart with My love.
I sing over you with joy.
When others walk away—I remain. When your heart falters—I hold fast. My love is not fragile. My promises do not crack under pressure.
I see your scars, and I still say, “You’re Mine.”
I see your questions, and I whisper, “I’m still here.”
Your identity is not built on what you’ve done—it’s built on what My Son has finished.
You are My child.
You are My delight.
You are My beloved.
So come back to Me. Rest in Me. Let My love be louder than every lie. Let My Word define you more than your past.
You don’t have to prove anything.
Just receive Me.
Just be with Me.
I have called you by name.
You. Are. Mine.
— Your Father
