Prayer based on Hosea 4

Lord Almighty, what will You do with Your church when we go the way of the murderous and faithless? Surely You will not allow us to stand in Your presence when we give ourselves to continual foolishness and sin. We were to be a glorious and royal priesthood. How can we be loved by You when we treat a piece of wood as an object of worship? How can we live if we are full of immorality? Oh the burden of our sin! Surely there is a better end for us. We will not be stubborn forever. Surely there is a remnant that will be ashamed of their sin, and will be kept according to Your abundant mercy.
