Through Deuteronomy 30:2–3, we see God’s promise of restoration for those who return to Him. Luke 10:16 calls us to recognize that rejecting His message is rejecting God Himself. And Psalm 79:9 encourages us to seek His mercy and forgiveness.
Reflect, repeat, and pray along with us as we learn to truly hear and obey the Lord.
