Hosea - Part 2 : God's steadfast love is active to draw us back to him.

God, as a loving husband, will not sit idly by watching his bride continue down a destructive path of whoredom.God's love is active, motivated by love and a desire to see her return.He sends word and warning .When she ignores his word and warning, he doesn't stop. Through purposeful discipline, he began to work by blocking her from her lovers, stripping her of all the blessings he has given her, and exposing her in her sin.Why?So she would come to the end of herself and return to him.His active steadfast love is at work to reveal to her that life is better with her husband so she will return to him.God's steadfast love moves him to action to draw her back to himself.
