    Jesus sees us hiding, calls us by name, invites Himself into our lives, and grace transforms what judgment never could.

    The invitation was to live in the ways of God. It was an invitation to come back to the ways that the people knew were right. When Hosea uses the words “let us”, he speaks in clear terms here to communicate that those who needed to return to the LORD were not alone.
