Hosea 2:7 - “She will pursue her lovers, but she will not overtake them; and she will seek them, but will not find them. Then she will say, ‘I will go back to my first husband, for it was better for me then than now!’"
Our pursuits must look so feeble to a Loving God! Even as the devil promised Eve perfect knowledge if she would but eat of the tree, mankind has continued to pursue this lie throughout the ages. Passion powered by lust will always result in a dead end and a frustrated life.
However, passion empowered by God’s love for our True Husband will always result in fulfillment. As prodigals, we must come to our senses and return to the One we know will fulfill our desires. Once we turn, we will soon find ourselves overtaking and capturing the heart of God once again on our behalf. When we find His embrace, may we never stray again but hold Him close while we seek His wisdom to live abundantly.
