Learning To Walk

Hosea 11:1-4

God's Love for Israel
1 "When Israel was a child, I loved him,
and out of Egypt I called my son.

2 But the more I [a] called Israel,
the further they went from me. [b]
They sacrificed to the Baals
and they burned incense to images.

3 It was I who taught Ephraim to walk,
taking them by the arms;
but they did not realize
it was I who healed them.

4 I led them with cords of human kindness,
with ties of love;
I lifted the yoke from their neck
and bent down to feed them.

Bee's Thoughts:

As I read the above verses, I felt God telling me,

"When Bee was a child, I loved her...
It was I who taught her to walk, taking her by the arms...
it was I who healed her.
I led her with cords of human kindness,
with ties of love;
I lifted the yoke from her neck
and bent down to feed her."

I felt so touched. Yes, God did all those for me. Without Him, I don't know what I would have become. Praise be to God.

There are still many things God wants to show me and wants me to trust and obey... be it at work, home, or relationship with others. I shouldn't take things in my own hands, but to pray and let Him lead me.

Dear Lord,
Thank You for all You have done in my life. I can't thank You enough. I pray You will give me strength to do what is right in Your sight. Help me when I am weak, pick me up when I fall. Teach me what it means to love You with all my heart, with my soul, and with all my might. Teach me also to know the full meaning of Agape love, that I may learn to love in that way.
In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.
