goodness and love
“Come let us return to the Lord; for he has torn us, that he may heal us; he has struck us down, and he will bind us up. After two days he will revive us; on the third day he will raise us up, that we may live before him. Let us know; let us press on to know the Lord; his going out is sure as the dawn; he will come to us as the showers, as the spring rains that water the earth…” Hosea 6:1-3
How appropriate that “cloud cover is expected to stay with us all day” (wral.com/weather). If there’s one time NC weather got it right, it’s today. I love the paradox of Christ’s sacrifice. Death through life, growth through rain, healing through brokenness. Reflecting on that sacrifice today that has revived me and given me new life in Him. Quite humbling.
