Today's Scripture
Hosea 2:19-20
I will make you my wife forever,
Showing you righteousness and justice,
Unfailing love and compassion.
I will be faithful to you and make you mine,
And you will finally know me as the Lord.
God's wedding gift to His people, both in Hosea's day and in our own, is His compassion. Through no merit of our own, God forgives us and makes us right with him. There is no way for us by our own efforts to reach God's high standards, but He graciously accepts us, forgives us, and draws us into a relationship with Himself. In that relationship we have personal and intimate communion with Him.
Gracious Lord, we thank You for Your compassion and unfailing love for us. We praise You for Your Righteousness and justice. We long to know You more and more each day. Create in us a fire and a passion for Your Word and for A real, authentic, intimate relationship with Your Son, Jesus Christ. Thank You Lord ! In Your Holy Name, Amen..
Have a blessed week !
Love in Christ,
April
