Spiritual Decline and Recovery

Hosea 14:1  (ID: 1066)

Our love for God can be like the morning mist: we see it, and then suddenly it is gone. Believers sometimes lose touch with our Father or drift away from Him. When it seems we’re in Christ one week and remote from Him the next, where can we find assurance of His love? Alistair Begg reflects on Hosea 14:1, reminding us that no matter how prone we are to wander, once in Christ, we are in Him forever.


A Plea to Return to the Lord

1Return, O Israel, to the Lord your God,

for you have stumbled because of your iniquity.
