Gomer was a prostitue.
Hosea was a prophet.
They were an unlikely pair.
Does Gomer change her ways?
Is she faithful - now that she is married?
No she "steps" out on her beloved.
Two of her Children are No-Mercy and No-Body.
Do we change our ways?
Are we faithful - now that we are the bride of Christ.
No we "step" out on our beloved.
We hurt Him, the One we love so much.
Hosea was told to buy her back - from the slave trade.
and rename his children All-Mercy and Somebody.
Christ bought us with His own blood.
And renamed us "little Christs".
He gave us His name and took us back into the family.
Whether it is John 3:16 or 1 John 1:9.
We have a Father who calls us All-Mercy and Someboy in "Him".
