Joel 2:13 - The Message

Change your life, not just your clothes.
   Come back to God, your God.
And here’s why: God is kind and merciful.
   He takes a deep breath, puts up with a lot,
This most patient God, extravagant in love,
   always ready to cancel catastrophe.
Who knows? Maybe he’ll do it now,
   maybe he’ll turn around and show pity.
Maybe, when all’s said and done,
   there’ll be blessings full and robust for your God!
