Hosea 2, 1 Samuel 15:22 and John 15:15

The Lord wants to pursue us with his loving-kindness. He pursued Gomer, Israel, and also us if we allow him. He is gentle and wants us to see that his ways are better to seek than ours.

Israel loved other gods, but when he decided to bring them back into a relationship with him, he did not shy away; he pursued them as it says in the words, "allure her." He technically loved them even when they did not see his love. He puts a hedge of protection around us and makes us invisible to the things and the people who would intentionally harm us.

Seek his love, for he is at the door knocking and waiting for our answer.
