Monday, May 20 | Temptation always gets ugly over time. (Hosea 2:6-9)
Hosea 2:6-9 Two ways that God gets our attention when we persistently pursue our temptations: (1) He makes them less accessible and satisfying. Our efforts to pursue them increase, but our achieving them and being satisfied by them decreases. (2) He removes His own blessings of protection and provision so that we can learn how truly fruitless life is without His involvement.
