Jeremiah 19:1-21:14
1 Thessalonians 5:4-28
Psalm 82:1-8
Proverbs 25:9-10
A cheesy title but a serious point. In this passage there is the most amazing outburst on the part of Jeremiah. He curses the day he was born, wishes he had died in the womb and generally demonstrates every sign of being seriously depressed.
It could not have been easy at all to bring the message of judgement that Jeremiah had to bring to Judah. He is having to stand up to just about everyone here, including the religious people who should be on God's side but are not.
God, give me the strength to do what Jeremiah did! He stood up against everyone, even his own will so that he would be faithful to God.
