  Israel had done some pretty terrible stuff, yet here, God makes it clear that if they will only repent and turn from their sin, he will be more than happy to wipe the slate clean and give them a second chance. There's a tendency in our lives sometimes to feel that we have done something too terrible, too bad for us to ever be a part of God's plan or to ever receive God's forgiveness. That simply isn't...

  There's a lot that could be said about this verse, but to me the thing that rings true is that even when he didn't feel worthy of it, God chose Jeremiah. This is a great opportunity, but also extremely scary. In a way, God is counting on Jeremiah to preach and share a difficult message with God's people. In the same way, each of us as disciples has been commissioned by Jesus to bear fruit (John 15:16).... Read more »
