I was struck by this verse as I sat and meditated and listened for the voice of God...
"If they'd have bothered to sit down and meet with me, they'd have preached my Message to my people. They'd have gotten them back on the right track, gotten them out of their evil ruts." (Jeremiah 23:22)
That's pretty intense, but maybe it comes home even more powerfully when we change the pronoun...
"If you'd bothered to sit down and meet with me, you'd have preached my Message to my people. You'd have gotten them back on the right track, gotten them out of their evil ruts." (Jeremiah 23:22)
This hit me as I had just sat down on a rock to listen and talk to God. He was speaking to me. Why do we so seldom sit down and talk to him? I'm not talking about in church, but in a silent place away from everyone. A place away from distraction. A place away from noise. Maybe there we will hear him and there see how awesome his message is. How important our task is to share his refreshing message of love with a world gasping for hope.
Thank you Lord for meeting with me.
