“Setting our hearts to understand” (Daniel 10:12)

“Yet even now,” declares the Lord, “return to me with all your heart, with fasting, with weeping, and with mourning; and rend your hearts and not your garments.” Return to the Lord your God, for he is gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and abounding in steadfast love; and he relents over disaster.”
‭‭Joel‬ ‭2‬:‭12‬-‭13‬ ‭ESV‬‬
