Hosea calls God's children then and through the Holy Spirit even now, " So you, by the help of your God, return, hold fast to love and justice, and wait continually for your God."

Our daily struggles are rooted in the brokenness that the fall brought about in Genesis.

You have a purpose that has been ordained by God.

The beginning of Jeremiah 17 makes clear that the sin of Judah was visible, since it had been engraved on their hearts.

Elihu was angry and apparently really angry, and it had been building through all of the speeches from Job’s three friends.

Remember when Jesus taught his disciples to pray? What was that line we have all recited many times? “Give us this day our daily bread.”

Even though Jesus answered the question, we often act as if we have a better answer than his, or at least we would prefer that Jesus consider our approach to setting up a good kingdom.
