FEELING LIKE GOMER
Today's reading: Hosea 1-7

The story always makes me shake my head reading about Hosea and Gomer. It's a soap opera to say the least. Marry a hooker (Can I say that? Oh, yes I can--that's what it says in the Bible.). She runs off. He takes her back. She runs off. He takes her back. The only thing missing is commercials!

But the sad part is, it's the story of my life, too.

God's always wooing me back into His presence. He's constantly seeking me out in some of the worst of places. He's taking me back after many an affair with foreign gods.

Hmmm, the story of my life. Yours, too?
