To exiled Israel it was said, “The LORD appeared to him from afar, saying, ‘I have loved you with an everlasting love; Therefore I have drawn you with lovingkindness’” Jer 31:3 (NASB).  His everlasting love keeps drawing you back home by grace, back to Himself.  He has plans for you, oh exiled ones.  Listen!  ”Again I will build you and you will be rebuilt, O virgin of Israel!  Again you will take up your tambourines, And go forth to the dances of the merrymakers” Jer 31:4 (NASB).  Wherever you are, there is hope!
