Pastor’s Note

Today we read of God’s passionate and dramatic call to repentance through Jeremiah—to his wayward generation. How gracious God is to provide messengers that call people to repentance in light of his impending judgment. As unpleasant as it may seem, we must see the Lord’s mercy in the “harsh words” of the prophet, as he calls the people to see their sin for what it is. Even in the New Testament we read of what might have well been perceived as “harsh,” as the Apostle Paul calls the lazy busybodies to get to work and earn their own food.
