"The Lord of the Redeemed"
Hosea 11:1-11
In one of the BC comic strips, there are two ants; a big ant and a little ant.
Little ant: "Dad, what mysterious force keeps me from being flung off into outer space?"
Big ant: "My forgiving nature."1 We return this morning to the prophet Hosea. God has told Hosea to marry a woman named Gomer who will be unfaithful to him. As the children are born they are named, "The Lord sows", "Not Pitied" and "Not My People". God is telling Hoseas neighbors that they are unfaithful to God and have caused God the pain that they themselves would feel. I wonder if they would ever have considered that God could feel pain at their lack of concern for their Lord.
Do we?
