“Rend your heart and not your garments.”

-This call is for genuine repentance and inner humility rather than just a superficial outward display of remorse.

-Tearing one’s clothes was a traditional sign of mourning or repentance in past cultures.

-But God desires heartfelt repentance and sincere change of heart over any external gesture.

-The call is for inner transformation over superficial acts.

Faith in God is insatiable.

If you’re not left always wanting for more, you’re doing it wrong.

Return to the Lord your God, for he is gracious and compassionate, slow to anger and abounding in love, and he relents from sending calamity.

‭‭Joel‬ ‭2‬:‭13‬ ‭NIV‬‬
