In Jeremiah’s overwhelming, hair-raising, and depressing prophecies, God repeatedly told his people he would destroy their things and places because of their obstinate, ever-rebellious, and hardened hearts. Yet, in the middle of these powerful and scorching warnings, God slips in messages that soar with hope, restoration, and grace beyond the destruction. Can you think of anything more reassuring than God’s promise to “refresh the weary and satisfy the faint”? That’s all Israel had for seventy years God’s promise amid total destruction. But when the time came, God made good on his promises and prophecies. I believe he will do the same with us today! “I will refresh the weary and satisfy the faint.” Jeremiah 31:25.

But God chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise; God chose the weak things of the world to shame the strong. —1 Corinthians 1:27. The Cross
