Daily Devo | "I Called My Son Out of Egypt" (Prophet & Loss, Hosea 11:1-11)
Description
This section of Hosea begins with an image of God as a loving parent and Israel as a child who chooses to run away. Like a heartbroken parent, God continues to call out but each effort only pushes Israel further away. One day, God will roar like a lion, not out of anger, but in a call for God's children to finally return home once again..

For Reflection:
"I will bring them home again," says the Lord (Hosea 11:11 )
- Have you experienced people you love choosing to distance themselves from you? Have you, perhaps in the past, chosen to push away those who have reached out to you? How does your experience help you understand God's heart in this passage?
- Do you feel that your life is currently moving closer or further away from God? What might help you to continue to respond to God's call to return home?
