There's Still Time for Forgiveness
Today's reading offers an invitation for God's people to see the error of their ways and repent. If the people truly turn away from their wrongdoing and place their full faith in God, they will be forgiven, protected, and provided for. In fact, if the people truly repent, God will pay back all that the people have lost as a result of the current invasion and suffering.
