In the same place

SCRIPTURE
Hosea 1:10 In the place where it was said to them, 'You are not my people', they will be called the 'sons of the living God.'


OBSERVATION
There is a drastic contrast here from not even being 'My people' to the status of 'sons' and it happens in the same place!


APPLICATION
I think when we've been in "that place" of life with Christ we can, just like Israel, become complacent and allow some things to slip in on us. It doesn't have to be big stuff either, I think its little stuff too. But God is always ready to bring us back to himself as sons.

PRAYER
Father God, you are amazing...you always have been....from the Israelites to me! Keep me mindful of how easy it is to go from faithful to faithless, from thankful to unthankful, from obedient to disobedient, from selfless to selfishness and the list goes on...and on...and on...and....Thank you, for making me your daughter!
