July 26

Jeremiah Rebukes an Unfaithful Nation (Continued) - Jeremiah 3:6-25, 4:1-31, 5:1-13


"Return,faithless people;
I will cure you of backsliding."
Jeremiah 3:22


God does more than forgive us of our sin. He cures us. I believe this. I need to take hold of it. All I need to do is return to Him for healing. Instead I try to do it on my own. It's my culture and upbringing and something that has brought me success over so many years: doing it on my own. But even this is an illusion, because God is hovering always ready to catch me and right me like a father running beside a child on a two-wheeler for the very first time. Unknown to the child, the father is holding the seat, keeping them straight and steady and upright.

Lord knows.
