There are those familiar phrases:
And, the more obscure:"Before I formed you..."
"Break up your fallow ground..."
"For I know the thoughts that I think toward you..."
I've read and re-read, hi-lighted and underlined, written note after note in the margins and watched the Truth of those pages bear fruit in my life. There is something about the book of Jeremiah that exposes my human-ness but gives me hope that I am still accepted and called. I invite you to get to know Jeremiah a bit better and to allow his words to poke at your heart in the same ways."Your sins have withheld good from you..."
"Ask for the old paths, where the good way is..."
"You are near in their mouth but far from their mind..."
