    God willingly pays the price to make her his once again. (v. 2-3)

III. What will be the result of God redeeming his unfaithful bride?
    God’s redemption will lead to restoration. (v. 4-5)

IV. Questions for Reflection
    1. How does God steadfast love encourage you to be faithful in your love to others?
    2. How does the price God was willing to pay for you encourage you to be faithful to him alone?
    3. Who at Northwood do you trust to help you follow Jesus even when it could cost them something in their relationship with you?
