Today, as it was then we should ourselves, all of humanity that is, but especially those of the household of faith be thankful to God for raising up people out of the midst of us that cry to him with a repentant cry. Still today, of all the greatness that God provides for His people there is still great disobedience and rebellion. Nevertheless, God continues to love us and does not reward us with what our rebellion warrants. Thank you God for your love, that you continue to put in the hearts of those that cry to you for the whole of humanity, but especially those of the household of faith.
