They that dwell under His shadow shall return; they shall revive as the corn, and grow as the vine: The scent thereof shall be as the wine of Lebanon. Hosea14:7
Israel had brought much heartache to God. In fact, God had disowned them for a season. They paid for their sins with blood, sweat and tears. However, in time God brought them back into His care, and He restored all that had been broken by their rebellion and idol worship. The Israelites had been a stench in God's nostrils, but the Lord sweetened them again with a new fresh scent. How often have we forsaken God? How often have we, by our own devices, separated ourselves from Him? How often has He brought us back and restored us with His grace and love? See, God's plan is redemption for every sinner - paid for by the blood, sweat and tears of our Lord Jesus Christ. Pastor John
