" I will betroth you to me forever; I will betroth you in righteousness and justice, in love and compassion. " - Hosea 2:19
be∙troth: to promise to marry
to be married to God..?
that sounds almost absurd.
God is HOLY. he cannot tolerate even a hint of sin.
thus, for us to be married to him implies
TOTAL righteousness in us. and total justification of our sins.
amazing.
amazing love. such compassion.
HOW can it be?
but it is.
Lord, thank you for your great love and compassion. without it, we would never stand a chance. without it, there would be no hope whatsoever. thank you so much for loving me. i love you, Lord.
amen.
