Hosea 5:15 - 6:3.
15 I will return again to My place till they acknowledge their offense. then they will seek My face; in their affliction they will earnestly seek Me.” 6:1 Come, and let us return to the Lord; For He has torn, but He will heal us; He has stricken, but He will bind us up. 2 After two days He will revive us; on the third day He will raise us up, that we may live in His sight. 3 Let us know, let us pursue the knowledge of the Lord. His going forth is established as the morning; He will come to us like the rain, like the latter and former rain to the earth."

When we offend God, we must confess the sin and seek Him with all our heart. He heals and bandages our wounds of our broken fallen deeds and thoughts, and we can look forward confidently to the resurrection with Him. This hope should drive us to run after knowing Him, which begins with knowing as much as we can about Him and all creation from His perspective, the Bible. He speaks to us to draw us to seek Him ever more.
