From today’s reading...
I will not give rein to my fierce anger, I will not destroy Ephraim again, for I am God, not man, the Holy One in your midst, and I shall not come to you in anger.” Hosea 11:9

We ignore the teachings God gives us because we think we know better, thus the saying, “Pride comes before the fall.”
We pushed things so far that God had to wipe the slate clean and start over, but in the process, He showed us the salvific nature of rebirth via water and the good that one righteous man can do for the world.

Keep the faith.
Endure.
Now go sell something.
