Read Zephaniah 3:14-20
God promises to bring us to holy living. God promises to save us and to renew and restore us in our lives of faith. Sometimes that promise means that we will have to go through a painful and life-changing experience, but our faith is never a matter of only happiness and roses. Our faith is an invitation to live in God's presence through Jesus Christ. Our future expectation, our hope, should always look to God's willingness and promise to be in charge of our lives, restoring them and putting away all that would keep us from God.
