Broken Beyond Repair, Jeremiah 8-9, OT S1:E500

God's people had so left the Lord that there was no hope for their relationship with Him. Even migrating birds know when to go home, but Israel refused to return to the Lord. So long as we hold fast our sin and reject God, there is no hope for us. But thanks be to God that He is always loving and caring for His people. Even when we don't deserve it, He opens His arms to us when we return to Him in faith and repentance because in Christ, He offers full forgiveness of sin.
