Distrust and despair

Daily Thought

Your Word for 15 November 2024

Genesis 18:13-14
The LORD said to Abraham, ‘Why did Sarah laugh? Is anything too hard for the LORD?’

Jeremiah 15:19 Therefore thus says the Lord [to Jeremiah]: If you return [and give up this mistaken tone of distrust and despair]…

Have you ever discovered that when you are going through a hard time we can begin to sound like we are going through a bad patch? Jeremiah had begun to develop this tone.  It was a tone of distrust and despair.
Perhaps he was saying things like: “God has forgotten about me”, or “God does not have a plan for me”, or “trusting God is not really helping me”. Moaning or distrust and despair do not move God, God is moved by faith.  When we develop this tone we need to take decisive steps to give up and let go of this attitude so that God can begin to use us again.
