Jeremiah 2
Inspired thots
God speaks through Jeremiah to His people Israel. He pours out His heart of grief to them who have hurt Him all the years when He kept silenced.
God recalls the good old days when His people were young and faithful to Him but as they mature, they became stubborn in their ways. They went after 'worthlessness' and became worthless. Though God intended the best for His people, they became defiled in their ways and did not acknowledge Him.
God's people forsook Him and opted for second best on their own strength which they gloated over.
Lust of the eyes and flesh can cause our downfall of faith in God; we are enticed by lust and turn away from God. Then we turn to other 'gods' instead of being steadfast with God alone in our lives. Next, we indulge in wickedness and revel with those in it to cause harm to others. How wickedness abound.
How foolish we are! Have mercy, Lord! Do not Contend with Us Lord! Let us come back to you!
A daily time out with the Lord Jesus, to hear Him speak to ME. I am asking the Lord to share HIS thoughts with ME, to teach me more about Himself, and how I can be drawn closer to Him... for 'His thoughts are not my thoughts and neither are His ways my ways' Isaiah 55:8,9. This blog is not a theological exegesis. This blog is to record down the INSIGHTS & INSPIRATIONS of God's Word to me; speaking LIFE into my life for Abundant life! :)
