Jeremiah 8
Inspired thots
The stubbornness of God's people grieves God deeply. Although His wrath is on His beloved people who do not choose to repent and return to Him, He is deeply grieved at their foolishness. They rather suffer want and wickedness than realize they need God who has been there for them all the years.
v20 "The harvest is past, the summer is ended, and we are NOT saved." How sad! From NT, we know that the field is ripe for harvest; people are ready to hear the gospel and be saved. Not so with God's people; they yearn and hunger... but for the wrong things in life. Hence, they do not enjoy salvation or blessings from God.
Hence, God is grieved. v18 "My grief is beyond healing; my heart is sick within me."
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! :)
