"Come, let us return to the Lord!
For He has torn us—and He will heal us! 
He has wounded us—and He will bind up our wounds!"
Hosea 6:1

We have wandered from Him . . . 
in our thoughts, 
in our desires, 
in our pursuits. 

We have been running after other lovers—and setting up idols in our hearts!

Our conduct has been sinful—and the effect most injurious to ourselves. 

Come then—and let us return to the Lord!

He is willing to receive us! 

He will readily pardon us!

Let us fall at His feet—and frankly confess our folly! 

Let us endeavour to turn our thoughts, desires, and affections back to Him again!

Especially, let us seek the Spirit of grace and supplication, for without His holy operations, there will be . . ..
no godly sorrow, 
no hatred of sin,
no self-abhorrence,
no faith in the promises, or 
restoration of the joys of salvation. 

We must return—or our sin will be aggravated. 

We must return—or our misery will be deep. 

Let us then at once, without any delay—approach His throne of grace!

We may plead His past mercies, 
we may plead His glorious name, 
we may plead our Saviour's blood—
and we will not we plead in vain!

"Come, let us return to the Lord!
For He has torn us—and He will heal us! 
He has wounded us—and He will bind up our wounds!"
Hosea 6:1
