“I will heal their waywardness and love them freely” (Hosea 14:4)

(The audio recording of this sermon will be uploaded here after the Sunday service.) We read Hosea chapter 6 during my previous message. The theme was returning to the Lord. Hosea 6:1-3 says, “Come, let us return to the Lord. He has torn us to pieces but he will heal us; he has injured us but he will bind up our wounds. After two days he will revive us; on the third day he will restore us, that we may live in his presence. Let us acknowledge the Lord; let us press on to acknowledge him. As surely as the sun rises, he will appear; he will come to us
