☀️ Forgiving beside Hosea 14:2
When forgiving is loud, Hosea 14:2 is a sentence you can borrow. “Take words with you, and return to Yahweh. Tell him, “Forgive all our sins, and accept that which is good: so we offer our lips like bulls.” The other two verses on this page stay with the same need.

Parent tip
If the feeling is bigger than a verse, stay in the room. Hosea 14:2 is a companion, not a fix-it line. The other two verses are for a second night if this one is enough.
