Few of us are called to be prophets like Hosea; all of us are called to pay attention to His message. Few of us will be asked by God to submit our plans and desires for marriage in the way He asked Hosea, but all of us are asked by God to trust Him with our lives. Few of us experience the level of disappointment Hosea experienced in his marriage and his ministry, but all of us are faced with the disappointing news of unfaithfulness to God.

Spiritual awakening for each of us means, in part, realizing how much we treat God the way that Gomer treated Hosea. Recognizing the shocking hardship of what Hosea had to endure in repeatedly rescuing Gomer from herself helps us appreciate, in a different way, what God has done for us.

Romans 5 Verse: “B

“But God proves His own love for us in that while we were still sinners Christ died for us!”

The deepest transformation we can ever experience is that moment of reaching for Christ’s hand of rescue and forgiveness.

God Bless
