and let our disgrace cover us.
We have sinned against the Lord our God,
both we and our ancestors;
from our youth till this day
we have not obeyed the Lord our God.” (Jeremiah 3:25)
Jeremiah 3 talks about a faithless people turning away from a faithful God. They worship the things created of this world instead of the Creator.
Forsaking our Lord puts stains on our heart and soul that only returning to Him can remove. The truth is, we can never be complete without Him – we were created that way from the beginning. When God created us in His image, that included a fullness that is only found in fellowship with the Trinity.
But our Lord is so in love with us that He continually pursues us – even as we turn away. When Christ calls out to you, be ready to answer and submit to His merciful pursuit!
“Return, faithless people;
I will cure you of backsliding.”
“Yes, we will come to you,
for you are the Lord our God." (Jeremiah 3:22)
