“[My people] insist on turning away from me. They will cry out because of the yoke that is on them, but no one will lift it from them. “How can I give you up, Israel? How can I abandon you…My heart will not let me do it! My love for you is too strong.” (Hosea 11:7-8, GNT).

“…for all those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted” (Luke 18:14, NIV).
Several years ago, I visited the Southern Ohio Correctional Facility in Lucasville, Ohio. I was part of a team that participated in a ministry conference within the prison walls.
