Have you read the book of Hosea? It's not a Pollyanna fairytale. It's about a prostitute. Prostitution is risqué, scandalous and nothing short of moral bankruptcy and impurity. Ironically, this is a picture of us... you and me. We are impure, unfaithful and forever returning to our old patterns and lifestyles. That's why we need God's redemption! God chose the analogy of a prostitute to help us see the immense contrast between our brokenness and His love and redemption.
How is one suppose to write a book or film portraying prostitution!? Do you have any idea how many people can relate to this type of brokenness? We act so polished once we experience redemption and forget how awful our own sin is. Truthfully we have ALL betrayed the heart of God with sin that is no different than the sin of a prostitute.
I'm thankful for pictures like this that demonstrate how messed up we can be and STILL BE LOVED, ACCEPTED, FORGIVEN and SET FREE!
