September 10: Jeremiah 31-33; Psalm 57; Hebrews 13

The prophet Jeremiah reminds us: God promises to restore us.  God promises to return us home.  And if we learn nothing else from Scripture, surely we learn that God keeps God's promises.

This story, this history, of ours with the Creator declares and displays over and over that God is a God of steadfast love and mercy----never wavering, never broken, never abandoned.

And the object of this wonderful and vast love?  Us, my brothers and sisters.....all of us....all of humanity.....all of God's children.

Restoration. Redemption. Return.  What a promise.
May today be a litany of thanksgiving to God in all that we say and do.
