“If
a man divorces his wife and she leaves him and marries another man, should he
return to her again? Would not the land be completely defiled? But you have
lived as a prostitute with many lovers - would you now return to me?” Jeremiah
3:1
“Why
should I forgive you? Your children have forsaken me and sworn by gods that are
not gods. I supplied all their needs, yet they committed adultery and thronged
to the houses of prostitutes” Jeremiah 5:7
I hate that those I love are
prostituting themselves to worthless matters of the world, crying and begging
for what is of no value. Nevertheless, this includes me. It is as if we are on
our knees in front of our enemies that seek nothing but destruction. How shall
we regain dignity?
“Therefore
this is what the Lord says: ‘If you repent, I will restore you that you may
serve me; if you utter worthy, not worthless, words, you will be my spokesman.
Let this people turn to you, but you must not turn to them.’” Jeremiah 15:19
Stand
tall, gather yourself. You are nobility, a royal family! Death before honor,
integrity in love, faithfulness to the end. I will, once again, be a voice of
God, proclaiming truth, living with strength and glory.
