Hosea 11:1 KJV
[1] When Israel was a child, then I loved him, and called my son out of Egypt.
My little kids can get naughty at times. You may sound several warnings about what not to climb, what not to touch or go close to, etc etc, but are sure to find them doing exactly that.
But someway somehow, you are unable to hate them. In fact, sometimes, right in the process of scolding them, they cry running back to your own arms 😂 for you to pat them in the back. No matter how angry you are, you end saying, “it’s ok, it’s ok, stop crying.” They are your friends again. You just can’t stop loving them, it’s too impossible.
That’s the beauty of being little children, the innocence at stake triggers/generates a counter love from the parent. This is where God finds Himself, and even more, when we remain his children, like Israel of old.

We were made for His good pleasure, so continue to remain His child so His love for you may never end.
Have a blessed day. #CarllyDevotionals
