So Jeremiah and God are having unbelievable conversations, and God is NOT too happy with what some of the people are doing and saying. God has given them what they've needed and still they ask why they have traveled out as far as they did; they have turned their backs on Him.
So God effortlessly says to Jeremiah that he is going to destroy them all. Jeremiah has been all about God the whole time and has praised God throughout the whole journey. Let me quote what I find to be some of the most powerful words in this selection.
"God, pick up the pieces. Put me back together again. YOU ARE MY PRAISE!" (Jeremiah 17:14)
GOD you are my praise! Nothing has ever stood out as well as this did when I'd read it. What an awesome prayer to the Lord. I know that is music the the King's ears!! Praise the Lord when troubled, happy, sad, scared. No matter what-Praise His Holy Name! He would love nothing more than to walk by your side and help you throughout it all. Just turn your eyes upon Him and He will hold you up!
