“The people of Israel are as stubborn as a bull” (Hosea
4:16). This is more than the story of Israel. It’s the story of every
one of us. Resisting God’s Spirit and rebelling against God’s Word, we
dig ourselves, more and more deeply, into a hole of our own making. It
is a hole from which we cannot lift ourselves. We can only be saved by
the Lord. The stubbornness must be taken out of our hearts. Love for
Christ must be put into our hearts. It is His love which changes us. He
breaks down our stubbornness. He builds in us a new and true love for
Him.
