Without Restraint

[90 words]

Near the end of the book of Hosea, the prophet delivers a message from God that relates to the time of the Messiah’s kingdom. That means it is a message for members of the church of the Lord. 

That’s you and me.

Here’s the message: “I will heal their apostasy. I will love them freely” (14:4). Did you catch that last part? I will love them “freely,” a word that means “without restraint.” A God infinite in power imparting love without restraint?

That boggles my mind. How about yours?
