RETURN to ME: Reading With the People of God #16ნიმუში

Love That Won’t Let Go

In Hosea 11–12, we hear the tender voice of a Father who taught His children to walk, who bent down to feed them, and who loved them even as they turned away. God’s heart is not cold in response—He is moved with compassion. “How can I give you up, O Ephraim?” He asks (Hosea 11:8 ESV). This is love that refuses to let go.

In Mark 5, Jesus meets a man completely overtaken by darkness, isolated and tormented. Yet not even a legion of demons can stop Jesus’ mercy. He restores the man fully—then sends him home to tell what the Lord has done.

Today, be reminded: there is no brokenness too deep, no wandering too far, no storm too strong to keep God’s love from reaching you. His love pursues, restores, and sends us out with a story to tell.

Is there a place in your life where you’ve given up, but God hasn’t?
Who might need to hear your story of God’s mercy today?

Return to the One who never left. Let His love meet you again—and let it move you to share that love with someone else.
