How do we know that God can turn our hearts toward Him?
Answered in 1 source
We can trust in God's ability to turn our hearts due to His everlasting love and the promise of His mercy.
The assurance that God can turn our hearts toward Him is founded in His character and the promises laid out in Scripture. Jeremiah 31:3 expresses God's lovingkindness, stating, 'I have loved thee with an everlasting love.' This enduring love serves as the bedrock of our confidence that God will turn us from our rebellion. When we are aware of our sins and the consequent sorrow, we are encouraged to cry out to God to turn us, reflecting our acknowledgment that He alone possesses the power to effect such transformation. Ultimately, it's through His grace that we can expect to be turned and healed, as God's faithfulness assures us that He will not abandon His children.
