Let’s return to the LORD. He has torn us to shreds, but he will bandage our wounds and make us well. (Hosea 6:1 CEV)
The Lord is a powerful and just King, who punishes those who transgress His Covenant. He is also a merciful and caring Father. All of us should be encouraged to come to the Lord: those who have sin against Him; those who are tired and want peace; those who seek the purpose of their lives; and, those who need love. In all humility, let us repent and ask for forgiveness. God shall renew our spirit, cleanse us of our sins, and enable us again to serve Him. Let us offer our sacrifice of thanksgiving and worship Him in all reverence.
