“Come, let us return to the Lord. He has torn us to pieces; now he will heal us. He has injured us; now he will bandage our wounds. In just a short time he will restore us, so that we may live in his presence. Oh, that we might know the Lord! Let us press on to know him. He will respond to us as surely as the arrival of dawn or the coming of rains in early spring.”
- Hosea 6:1-3

Father God, thank You for the discipline that is always aimed at restoration, not destruction. Heal what sin has wounded and bind up what has been broken by the power of Jesus whom You raised on the third day. Restore our confidence in Your love that never gives up on us.
