God repeatedly compares His relationship with Israel to a marriage. They ‘ve been unfaithful, but He keeps pursuing them. They go into exile, but He’ll bring them back (like Hosea dis with Gomer). Where have you seen this in your own life?

Zach talked about 3 thoughts.

1. Priority: How is your priority with the Lord? What does it look like as priority for you?

2. Intimacy: Deep knowledge with another person. (to be known).
   How is your intimacy with the Lord? How do you feel known by the Lord ? Are there areas that need to be brought into the Lord’s light?

3. Transformation: Needs to be a love relationship not transactional. Where do you need your love to be transformational with Jesus?

   How has your relationship transformed you into who you are?

Where have you demanded that the Lord love you on your terms?

What do you think about the statement- “Our idolatry is adultery.” (sin)
Exodus 34:6 – slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love and faithfulness and if you go ontoverse7,Howdoesthatsitwithyou?

Deut 31: 16- 18 – What do you think about that statement with our adultery to other things? What is the Lord inviting you to do with this?

Romans 2:4 and Psalm 103:13-14, Romans 5:6-11
Look at these verses, sit with these a bit – what do they say to you?

He does not give up on us. How does that make you feel? God came completely vulnerable through Christ to give us life. How will that Change you?

What is one take away for you this week? Who are you going to talk to about this?
