Have you ever been in a place where you thought life was at it's worst? Perhaps it was because of something you did, or that someone else did. Imagine God telling you that He wanted you to tell a story to someone, and he thought the best way to tell it was to make YOU the object lesson and marry a prostitute! Ummmm... God? I might be able to think of a better way? "Nope" says God. "Go out and find one. Then I want you to name your children awful names on purpose, you know... to send Israel a message." That doesn't sound like God right? (AHEM... Abraham and Isaac) But even in the mess, God showcases His brilliance and the distance He is willing to go for even one person who thinks they might have gotten so far away that they think their relationship is beyond repair. That's when God does the completely unexpected. Journey with us and The Bible Project in today's lesson through the book of Hosea.
