Jeremiah 19 & 20
Inspired thots
How discouraging Jeremiah must have felt with the people around him cursing and not hearing the Word of God through him. Yet he pushed on with his calling.
In modern day times, it may be equivalent to the pastor or any full time worker for the Lord where His words are falling on deaf ears. It is hard to be serving the Lord passionately today as it was in Jeremiah's days. However, one truth is noted in this situation.... Jeremiah's warnings from the Lord was not well received by Israel. The same with today, as Jesus mentioned, a prophet is not welcomed in his hometown. "Familiarity breeds contempt".
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! :)
