The cords of kindness

"I drew them with gentle cords,
With bands of love,
And I was to them as those who take the yoke from their neck.
I stooped and fed them" (Hosea 11:4).

"No one can come to Me unless the Father who sent Me draws him; and I will raise him up at the last day" (John 6:44).

"And I, if I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all peoples to Myself” (John 12:32).
