Grace, Grace, God’s Grace
So the Lord will spell out his message for them again, one line at a time, one line at a time, a little here, and a little there, so that they will stumble and fall. They will be injured, trapped, and captured.

Listen to His precious and gentle warnings.
My Takeaways: Hosea continues His warnings
Something Old: So we finished the book of Hosea today. A good lesson to take from Hosea.. The Israelite were warned time after time, but refused to listen resulting in harden hearts. They chose to live in darkness. They had it all, but over time they threw it all away by refusing to listen. As I have said before it’s a slow fade, but it’s never too late, God is always gracious and loving and wants us to repent. Just like He wanted Isreal to do.
Something New: Hosea 14:9 “Let those who are wise understand these things. Let those with discernment listen carefully. The paths of the Lord are true and right, and righteous people live by walking in them. But in those paths sinners stumble and fall.” Beautiful words. God is always willing to forgive me. I must not forget His love, but in the process remember not to forget His wrath against my sins either. Forgiveness: God judges the sin and shows his mercy to the sinner.
Something To Do: Always be willing to come to God, He alone can give me a renewed life.
