The explanation followed the looking. And what God then said turned everything upside down: the ones carried off to Babylon were the good figs. Your exile may not be rejection at all. Ask Him what He sees.

Thank You for sparing us the three day searches when we finally trust what You have already told us, and for Your patience when we go anyway.

Jesus never denied it. John fasted and they called him demon possessed; Jesus ate with people and they called him a drunkard. Some people will not be pleased either way. But notice the slander that stuck. If that name is true, there is room at his table for you.

Hold my heart steady, and let me love the ones who can't see yet.

God looks at the heart behind the harm. He built whole cities, with roads kept clear, for people whose worst day was an accident. Think of what you still punish yourself for. Did you mean it? God knows. He made a place for you to run.

Good advice, sincere, and wrong. "It happened the same night, that Yahweh's word came to Nathan." Not months later, after the damage. That night. God is kind enough to correct us quickly, if we are still listening after we have spoken. Are you?
